What a fantastic morning of community, wellness and celebration! The perfect weather and warm ambiance led to a great time for the run/walk and many stayed to schmooze. Thanks to everyone who came out to participate; we were 180 strong! Thank you to Bessie Hershey Religious School for the great partnership, to our sponsors Trader Joe's and Miles Market for the water and fruit, and to Men's Club for the lovely breakfast. A special thank you to our committee: Bob Zelwin, Dan Dobres, Greg Goldfeder, Steve Galun and Linda Schoenberg. (We have some extra shirts for sale; if you are interested, please contact Renee Greller.)
