ASHLAND — The public is invited to a Beer & Wine Tasting at Mitchell’s Orchard & Farm Market, 1217 Township Road 1153, Ashland, on Friday, April 21 from 6 to 9 p.m. to benefit the 2017 Walk to End Alzheimer’s – North Central Ohio.

The event will feature tastings, appetizers, live music and the signature Balloon Pop, where participants pay $5 each for a balloon, pop it and win a prize valued at $5 or more.

Organized by the Ashland area members of the North Central Ohio Walk volunteer committee members, the evening will also feature live music and recognize award recipients from the 2016 Walk to End Alzheimer’s.

Tickets are $20 and are available at the door.

The Beer & Wine Tasting kicks off a series of area activities which will culminate with the 2017 North Central Ohio Walk on Saturday, Sept. 23 at the OhioHealth Ontario Health & Fitness Center, 1750 W. 4th St., Ontario.

The walk raises awareness and funds for local support and services as well as research into ways to prevent, better treat and, hopefully, cure Alzheimer’s and other related dementias.

For more information about the Tasting or the Alzheimer’s Association, call Cindy Jakubick, outreach and development coordinator, 419-522-5050.
