BHNA: Thank You Sponsors, Community for Great Race [Photos]

To the Editor:

The rains parted Friday evening making Saturday April 13 a perfect day for the Fourth Annual Run for the Hills.  Nearly 300 runners enjoyed a great morning thanks to a very supportive community. 

Thank you to the following sponsors: POWR against Tobacco, Panera, Trustco Bank ,Healthy Homes and Brenner Builders, Lloyd  Bedford Cox ,John Beach Electric, Dr. Stu Weitzman,  Siano Real Estate, MTC Limo, Fazzinga Roofing, Pawfection, Preppy Turtle, Table, Lex Ave Gym, Spano Plumbing, Kinectfin, Vine and Co., Fox Lane Booster Club, Chris Butz- Allstate, CrossFit  Bedford Hills, Bedford Dental Care, Cross Sport , Complete Wellness and Nutrition. 

Bedford Bagel, Shop Rite and the Chamber of Commerce provided food and drink as well as the Community Church who provided a water station. Prizes were supplied by CrossFit of BH, Grand Prix and Kenwood Vineyards.

This event couldn’t have taken place without the help of the Town’s Park and Recreation, Highway and Police Departments. Another year we are happy to say the service of the KBHVAC Ambulance was not needed, but always grateful to have them at the ready.  Our volunteers are the best and we are extremely lucky to have them help with registration and course direction. 

Not only do I serve on the committee for the Run for The Hills but I am the proud President of the Bedford Hills Neighborhood Association. On behalf of the BHNA I would like to thank the members of the committee and their families. Countless hours go into making this race go off smoothly and it is these women who deserve the biggest thank you:  Jennifer Hopf, Bonnie LaRaus, Annette Vessecchia, Paula Wallace and Liz Walsh.
