Please join my Mom and me as we celebrate my sister Nina’s life and help raise money for a great cause in her honor.  We will be doing The Samaritans’ 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, October 3rd, 2009 along the Charles River.

Nina was known for her vivaciousness and sense of humor -- but also for her generosity.  We think she would have liked that we are trying to raise money to help others in her name.

You can donate and/or join Nina’s Team on October 3rd! (We will be walking it!) This is the Samaritans 11th Annual “Run for Someone Else's Life.” There will be festivities to follow, which include live music, games, refreshments and a kid's race.

To donate just click on the "Sponsor Me Now" link, shown above. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. 

You can register to join us on the walk by going to: http://www.samaritansofboston.org/5k.html Go to "Register Online."  Select “Nina’s Team.”

WHEN: Saturday, October 3, 2009

    * Registration: 8:00 a.m.
    * Race: 10:00 a.m.
    * Awards: 11:00 a.m.
