Evelyn Knapp "Run to Remember" and Wellness Walk


You may remember, at that time we were all suffering the effects of Super-storm Sandy and Strength for Life was torn between canceling the event or carrying on in 'less that perfect' conditions. Our run is held at Sunken Meadow and the course needed to be changed due to the  obliteration of the dam . We decided to go forward and justified our decision by sharing the proceeds with families hurt by the storm. Strength for Life was able to share $4100 with 11 families. Strength for Life is a grassroots nonprofit providing FREE exercise classes and wellness retreats to cancer patients on Long Island. We hold the classes at many venues in Nassau and Suffolk - including Stony Brook Cancer Center and Mather Hospital. For more information visit our website at www.strengthforlifeNY.org or call 631-675-6513.  Enjoy the video. Our youngest fundraiser  Emma Thode is featured as well as the  Green Vale Pacers - of the Green Vale School - both supporting Strength for Life by fund-raising to benefit our 'NO Cost' programs.
    Thank you all for the help and support!  No one can whistle a symphony. It takes a whole orchestra to play it. ~H.E. Luccock
