4th Annual Costumed Prediction Run/Walk nets United Helpers residents more than $4K

Maranda Rowley, Alyssa Murphy, and Amanda Rowley.

The organizers of this year's Annual Costumed Prediction Run/Walk at SUNY Canton want to send a special thank you to everyone who participated. The event, co-sponsored by United Helpers and SUNY Canton's Employee Assistance Program, raised more than $4,000 for residents at United Helpers facilities.

This was the first year the event was held at SUNY Canton and the venue - Roo's House - enabled United Helpers to hold a Wellness Expo during the run. Student volunteers came out and lined the course to help runners and walkers stay on track. University Police Officers Brain Kurish, Tammy Lapage-Avery and Dan Callahan were on hand to ensure the event went smoothly and safely.
