Honors for Uncle Glenn

Glenn and I (and our youngest grandson, Oliver) traveled to 

Davie, Florida last weekend to attend the 11th annual I Care

I Cure I Run 5K and Family Fun Day. We were a platinum sponsor

 this year and were honored by the foundation for the bike ride and the

almost $100,000 that we have raised for I  Care I Cure over

the last nine years.  Thanks to all of you for your help!

The first thing we saw when we arrive at the venue was

this large canvas poster!  Of course, the photo was taken

when we arrived at the Santa Monica Pier on December 29th!

The master or ceremonies for the event was 

Congresswoman, Debbie Wasserman Schultz,

a family friend and I Care I Cure supporter.

She is the U.S. Representative for Florida's 23rd congressional district

Our sister and brother-in-law, Beth and Brad Besner,

founders of I  Care I Cure, began the Opening Ceremony

We are very appreciative of the attention paid to 

I Care I Cure I Cycle at the event!

Glenn was presented with a beautiful glass

plaque which will receive a place of honor

is our bike-themed office at home.

Glenn had the honor of leading the runners on bike

as the race of more than 1200 participants took off on the 

campus of Nova Southeast University.

Glenn should have had a head start!

 It was a beautiful, warm day in southern Florida!

One of the special things about the venue for this

race is the opportunity given the runners to pass by

the Ian Besner Baseball Field on the adjacent campus

of the private school that Ian and his brothers attended.

We do all of this in memory of Ian and to insure that

other children live to fulfill their dreams....Ian loved

baseball and aspired to play in the major league!

Oliver loved the festivities and won a medal for his stroller 5K!

 As of February 6, 2018, our total dollars raised

for the final bike ride is $30,114 !!!!  We can't thank

you enough for your amazing support for this final leg.  

We were thrilled to be able to raise funds 

and awareness for I Care I Cure over the years!

The ride may be over but our commitment to this

great foundation will continue!
