This years Sean's Run was a huge success! This year 158 runners and walkers participated! That is twice the number we had in our first year! We also received one matching grant so all of the money raised was doubled! All together this year we raised a total of over $5,500! That is more than double what we raised in our first Sean's Run!
Thank you to all our participants and volunteers! You made this years Sean's Run from Autism a wonderful achievement!
We are now planning "Sean's Run from Autism 2009". Please feel free to send in your ideas and suggestions!
