A beautiful day weather wise and a great cause! Today MAPS of Middletown held a walk-a-thon at Xavier High School to raise money and awareness about multiple sclerosis- "On behalf of MiddlesexArea Patients Services (MAPS) we would like to thank all those that participated in our first Wheel/Walk-A-Thon held today, Sunday, October 16 at Xavier High School's track. Todays event was a great success. Thank you to those that helped organize this event, Xavier High School - for the use of your track, Lyman Orchard's for their donation of apples, Phil Russo - an EMT from South Fire District that was on-site, and Mother Nature of course for her cooperation! MAPS plans on holding this event next fall. We are also conducting another fundraiser selling nuts from the "Nut Lady", please contact Mary Ladd at 860-346-2515, all orders are due by
November 28." Numbers are still being totaled as fair as donations, but about 100 people turned out to walk today.
