Oh yes, it is that time of year again!
Ontario ARC will host its 18th annual Cruisin' for a Cause on Aug. 19, 2010 at Steamboat Landing in beautiful Canandaigua. Information about tickets and our great sponsorships opportunities will be available soon and we will post anything new here as it happens.
Last week, Donna Auria, the director of development, put out a call for any volunteers interested in serving on the event committee. If there was ever a year to join the committee, its definitely this one. We have a lot of new, interesting ideas that are going to make this Cruisin' for a Cause one to remember. For those unfamiliar with Cruisin' for a Cause -- its the agency's only major fundraiser of the year and all of its proceeds go towards the Recreation Program. The Recreation Program is one of the most important services offered by the agency because it offers balance to the lives of the people we serve. Participants of all ages have the chance to experience fun athletic and entertainment activities, as well as join a Special Olympics team.
Of course, there are plenty of other ways to participate in Cruisin' for a Cause beyond serving on the commitee or becoming a sponsor. The agency will also be looking for volunteers to lend a hand the night of the event. Make sure you stay tuned to this blog and the agency's main news site for information about this exciting event!
