ABC#175, for Adopt-A-Family, 11-5-22

 Wow! A total of $2,450 was donated to Adopt-A-Family by the 29 participants on November 5, plus six other supporters that were unable to attend. This will provide a great Christmas for our assigned family and might be enough for two more families. Those that submit their donations to their corporate matching gift program will help even more. 

Thanks, everyone, for your support and thanks to Lisa & Jay Sparks for doing a great job hosting at their home.

 At 9:00, Lisa thanked everyone and briefly told us about the program. After a group picture, we headed out for a run or walk on the constitution trail. There was a weather advisory, but we lucked out and the rain and stronger winds held off. 

Thanks to Mike and Dawn Laffey for bringing Peter and Pam Helander to their first ABC run. Peter and Dawn are great friends from Wisconsin that happened to be in town for the weekend.

We were treated to a superb breakfast of blueberry pancakes prepared by Jay Sparks, coffee cake from Rebecca Africano, Greek yogurt & granola from Rich Beal, cookies from Pam Helander, and more (snack bars, bananas, OJ, coffee).


We have completed eighteen years of ABC runs. This was another great year.
  Total contributions for the eight ABC runs in 2022 is $17,778.  The total for all 175 ABC runs is $206,841. Looking forward to another great year starting January 14 at Sugar Grove Nature Center.   


Thanks a million for all your kindness and generosity!
