Throughout July and the 2015 baseball season, The ALS Association Golden West Chapter is participating in and partnering with baseball teams to raise awareness and support for the fight against Lou Gehrig’s disease.

This July 19th, the Oakland A's will host a special day to honor the 76th anniversary of Lou Gehrig's farewell to the New York Yankees and his fans.  Volunteers will be on hand to answer questions, proivde information about the Golden West Chapter, National ALS registry, and to promote our East Bay Walk to Defeat ALS, South Bay Walk to Defeat ALS, and the Napa Valley Ride to Defeat ALS. The national "Strike Out Lou Gehrig's Disease" campaign is focused on promoting the ALS registry and spreading awareness about the increased risk to our military veterans.

We will be giving away 40 tickets for people with ALS and one (1) companion. For questions, please contact us at info@alsagoldenwest.org. If you are interested in attending, please email us to let us know!
