We are 25 years old!

In January 1985, W. G. Rainey and a small group of individuals started the group because they felt there was a need for a support group for Parkinson's patients, their care caregivers, and anyone who had an interest in Parkinson's disease within the community. The group was established on March 20, 1985.

On January 17, 2010 we had a Surprise 25th Birthday Party at our monthly meeting.
