Memorial walk/run to celebrate Barri Donnellan's life. All race proceeds will be donated to Angels of Light (501c3) who’s mission is to assist children and families living in the Hudson Valley with life threatening illnesses. The banner photo above was taken from the 2014 race at Tymor Park which Barri was volunteering — she was off to the left when this photo was taken.
This years race honoree is Serena Brenner and in memory of longtime volunteer, Betty Colkin.
Serena suffered extensive brain damage at birth, and specialists said she wouldn't live past 4 years old. Serena is now 32 years old and has three younger siblings. She is a miracle and shines her light wherever we go to encourage others to think differently and be more inclusive of people. Together we support many non for profit charities that care for others and share our beliefs of including all people. We love going to concerts, the beach, Disney, going on the Walkway over the Hudson and church. Serena is also a source of strength as a Special Education Advocate in Ulster County for the Resource Center for Accessible Living.
The race will take place in the Village of Millbrook and head out to the new Bennett Park! We also have a virtual option available!
