Dr. Holly Gilmer joined her past patients and their families and answered questions about Chiari during the Conquer Chiari Walk Across American on September 17, 2016 at Stoney Creek Metropark. The Conquer Chiari Walk Across America is a series of local awareness and fundraising walks held the same day. The walk is about three miles.

Dr. Gilmer was thrilled to be the guest speaker for the Michigan Chiari-Conquer Chiari Walk, and has been for the last few years. Money raised goes to fund Chiari research, education and awareness programs. For more information about future walks and events, check out the Conquer Chiari Walk Across America website
