Easter Seals New York's 5th Annual Walk With Me Long Island
09/12/2009 - By Bethpage State Park’s Picnic Area

Easter Seals New York's 5th Annual Walk With Me Long Island

Easter Seals New York's 5th Annual Walk With Me Long Island Was a Huge Success!

On September 12, over 200 Easter Seals New York supporters gathered at Bethpage State Park’s Picnic Area for Walk With Me Long Island to raise money for children and adults with disabilities and special needs.

Despite the rainy morning, the skies cleared up just in time for check-in and the walkers to arrive. This year's walk was full of fun and entertainment! Dave and Busters brought their prize wheel & KJOY radio was giving away freebies! For the adults there were massages and give-a-ways from Staples, while the children enjoyed getting their faces painted, making crafts and taking photos with KJOY’s Lucky the Duck! CVS provided much needed beverages for walkers both before and after the walk and Soulful Sounds played upbeat music throughout the morning.

Aris Pavlides, Chairman of the Easter Seals New York’s Long Island Regional Board and Long Island Regional Board Member Craig Erlich greeted walkers, sponsors, volunteers and walk Ambassadors. Honorary Ambassadors from Handicapped Adults New Directions in Suffolk (HANDS) and The New York Warriors quad rugby team were introduced to the walkers by John W. McGrath, Senior Vice President of Organizational Development at Easter Seals New York.
After the walk, attendees enjoyed a barbeque hosted and cooked by CVS Caremark and CVS team members as well as a fantastic demonstration scrimmage put on by the New York Warriors up on the basketball court. Some attendees even got the chance to play rugby themselves!
