At the end of April, I learned that Food Pantries were struggling and we at the Town of Orangetown decided to (proverbial) roll up our sleeves and help.

With so many Spring races being canceled, we created a Virtual 5K - Where Community Comes Together, Even When We Are A P A R T.

Thanks to all our runners/walkers (223 in total) and to those who made donations, I was able to present 4 checks to our local food banks. Each bank received $ 3,000.00.

Many thanks to all who took part - your generous donations will go a long way in helping to feed our local families.
