Joining in were (second row) Councilman Mario J. Civera Jr., Councilman Andy Lewis, Councilman Thomas J. McGarrigle, Council Vice Chairman Christine Fizzano Cannon and Council Chairman John J.

The event is the largest single donor to fund. The 10th annual run will be held on Sunday, Oct 10, again in Springfield.
