KY (FOX19) - Approximately 1,200 people turned out at Turfway Park on Saturday, May 18, for the third annual Northern Kentucky Walk to Defeat ALS, a fundraising and awareness event to combat the neurodegenerative disease commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

The event generated more than $46,000 in donations that directly benefit the ALS Association Kentucky Chapter, which supports those affected by ALS in the Commonwealth and the surrounding area.

The majority of the crowd walked as teams participating in honor or memory of relatives or friends afflicted with the disease, which attacks brain and spinal cord cells that control voluntary motor function. There is no cure or treatment to halt progression of the disease.
