Interstate Bicyclers Parky's Peddlers Leaving Hoquiam Today

HOQUIAM, Wash. - Parky's Peddlers are heading out from Hoquiam this morning on their 10 day bicycle trip from Canada to San Fransico. Parky's Peddlers is a group of people committed to help the fight against Parkinson’s Disease. The group was welcomed by a barbeque dinner at the Hoquiam River RV Park off of Highway 101 last night, and will be peddling south from Hoquiam today so drive safe and watch for extra bicycles.
Parkinson's disease is a disorder of the brain that leads to shaking (tremors) and difficulty with walking, movement, and coordination.
Locally, a Grays Harbor Parkinson’s Support Group has just started. Patients and caregivers meet on the last Tuesday of every month at the Hoquiam Library downstairs meeting room from 6 pm to 7 pm. If you want more information, please contact Bob Martin or Betsy Seidel at 360-533-5968.
