River Valley SRA "Chilly Willy Walkers"
We had 19 friends, family and Special Olympic Athletes join us in supporting the Arthritis Foundation in their annual Jingle Bell Run/Walk. Our group raised over $600 and had a great time on Sunday, December 11. We enjoyed a crisp winter morning and benefited from some walking and running to help this cause.
River Valley SRA raised over $700 for this years Polar Plunge. The water was cold and the wind was strong, but all for a GREAT cause.
