13th Annual Harvest Run Update
The Harvest Run took place on Sunday, October 13, at the Intervale. What a fun and inspiring morning! We lucked out with incredible weather – sun, changing leaves and only a slight chill. It was our most successful fundraising year ever, bringing in more than $10,000 for the SA Community. Over 80 people ran! Thank you to all who participated in and volunteered for it.
