Members of the Hoptown Half Marathon and 5K committee donated $1,000 to the Pennyrile Walk to End Alzheimer’s Wednesday.

Hopkinsville Marketing Coordinator Chris Jung says the donation was given to the organization after they agreed to move their walk day to the next day to accommodate the Saturday, September 28 races. The move reportedly led to a successful weekend for both organizations.
