Community Corner

Alex and Arleen Boyes 5k Run and 3k Walk

Arleen
and Alex Boyes, a mother and son, were a committed Cancer Support Community
Greater Philadelphia volunteers at our Gilda’s Club location. Alex completed
his Eagle Scout project there and Arleen helped run the volunteer committee. In
the fall of 2009, at the age of 22, Alex passed away from skin cancer. In late
2013, Arleen also passed away from breast cancer. All funds raised from the
event will stay locally to support the Cancer Support Community Greater
Philadelphia in its mission to ensure that no one has to face cancer alone.  Overall Male/Female and Top
Age Groups Winners will receive gift cards to local businesses.  Scenic course entirely in Warminster
Community Park (finish on an airport runway!!!), Technical
T-shirts
 to the first 100 registered. 
Great after party catered by SODEXO, vendors, crafts, games for the kids, music
gift cards to age and group and overall winners along with incredible door
prizes!
