Its that time...2nd Annual
Alec's Run/Walk Honoring the memory of our nephew, Alec, who was backed over by an SUV when he was 16 months old.
April 29th at 9:30am Walkers, strollers, baby joggers welcome Thanks to your support, we are making a difference. We have raised awareness of the deadly blind zone behind all vehicles. Alec's parents have met with members of Congress and have helped draw attention to the fact that over the past several years there have been over 800 children tragically killed across the U.S. They continue to work with Kids and Cars to effect change.
All proceeds will be donated to Hospice Care Network, Kids-n-Cars: an advocacy group striving to make cars safer for their littlest passengers, and finally the Alec William Nelson Charitable Corporation that will donate funds to charities working with children.
same location as last year - Half Hollow Hills West High School, hopefully not the same weather... You can register online at: http://www.active.com/event_detail.cfm?event_id=1298989 More info and directions available at: Alec's Website

Re: Its that time...2nd Annual
You guys are great. You can make a donation through paypal to: alecsplayground@yahoo.com
or mail a check to: The Alec William Nelson Charitable Corp 999 Grand Blvd, Deer Park, NY 11729
("Alec's playground" refers to a playground that was built with funds donated in memory of Alec just after the accident. The playground provides a safe place for underpriviledged children to play at a local Helping Hands Mission in Hungtington Station. Now that the playground is complete, the race enables the family to have a way to annually celebrate of his life while raising awareness.)
