WALK RUN FOR GENESEE LAND TRUST ON SATURDAY NOV 11

On Saturday, November 11th between 10 and 2pm look for the Genesee Land Trust banner along Blossom Road at Ellison Park for the WALK RUN fundraiser. This event, with all proceeds supporting the conservation efforts of the Trust, was first conceived by then 16 year old Land Trust volunteer, Casia Moffatt, in 2005. This year Casie, of Rochester, joins Jennifer Cumbo, of West Irondquoit and other teens from Penfield, Honeoye Falls and Rush, in running the Indian Landing Trail at Ellison Park. Participants will be asking for pledges of $2.00 per mile and hope that many miles will be run. The public is invited to participate by either sponsoring one of the students or themselves on November 11th! This is a great way to burn calories, enjoy the last days of autumn and give to a great cause. Call Genesee Land Trust at 256-2130 for more information. You do not need to register to participate. The Trust, led by teen volunteers, invites all to join in the fun on Saturday, November 11th from 10 to 2pm at Ellison Park.

Genesee Land Trust is a not for profit land conservation organization currently protecting over 2500 acres in Greater Rochester. Visit: www.geneseelandtrust.org
