In loving memory of Gene Anderson, 1940 – 2023, Anderson Lock is hosting its 4th Annual TEAM GENE ALS Mini-Walk to help fund research.

Our goal this year is $40,000… help us UNLOCK ALS!

From infants in strollers to strollers in their 80’s, well over 100 participants joined Anderson Lock employees, our families, friends, vendors and customers at the gala event last August.

This year’s raffle baskets are better than ever!

After walking through adjacent neighborhoods, we will once again enjoy taco dinners, margaritas, and more! And, unbelievably, this year’s raffle prizes are greater than ever!

Abundant baskets include sporting event tickets, overnight hotel stays, golf outings, salon and restaurant gift certificates, plus a great variety of sports memorabilia and camping gear.

ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. In this disease, also called Lou Gehrig’s Disease, nerve cells break down, which reduces functionality in the muscles they supply. The cause is unknown. Medication and therapy can slow ALS and reduce discomfort, but there is no cure.
