Horace Greeley HS Walkathon to Benefit Making Headway Foundation & PCRF

Horace Greeley Walkathon - Sponsored by the Greeley Sports Boosters All Athletes...All Teams...All Seasons will be participating on 11/2

Don’t just talk the talk...WALK THE WALK!!! The Sports Boosters, in conjunction with Greeley athletes from all sports and all seasons, are planning the first Horace Greeley Athlete Walkathon.

We will be stepping out on Sunday, November 2nd from 11a – 1p in memory of Gardner Marks, Class of 2008. Our community lost Gardner at age 23 from complications from Leukemia just two short years from his diagnosis.

Cancer is non-discriminating.

Gardner was a Greeley Athlete just like you.

The walkathon is the perfect platform to raise both awareness and money in the fight against Pediatric/Adolescent Cancers, Spinal and brain tumors.

This year we will be making contributions to organizations that are right in our own backyard… PCRF-Kids (Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation) an organization devoted to raising money toward grants for cutting edge cancer/stem cell research, and Making Headway Foundation, an organization that provides essential care and support for children with brain or spinal cord tumors; serving the child, family and peers by helping them through emotional and physical difficult times outside of the medical world as well as by funding research. Both organizations have a common vision…to bring hope and lifesaving treatments to kids battling cancer, and spine and brain tumors.
