GLIRC PRESENTS CHECKS TO LONG ISLAND GREENBELT TRAIL CONFERENCE AND CDD OUT OF ROB’S RUN PROCEEDS

We were pleased to present checks to the Long Island Greenbelt Trail Conference and the Center for Developmental Disabilities out of the proceeds of last year’s edition of Rob’s Run.

Held in the memory of our friend Rob Lauterborn, Rob’s Run is a special event for many of us, so it is a special privilege to be able to make these donations to two such deserving organizations.

The date for the 27th annual edition of Rob’s Run is Sunday, December 1st, so mark your calendars now for Long Island’s Premier Cross Country Race.
