Good Day To All,
Usually I like to write about the various persons connected within the cemetery and the walk-about with those persons. But for this note today, I would like to discuss the Walk for Autism which took place in Wallingford two weeks ago.
Needless, to say, it was a wonderful time to give to a great cause. My team was the "Marissa Monsters". Marissa is the daughter of Lisa and George Carranzo, the owners of Grand Apizza (New Haven's Best Kept Secret) located at 111 Grand Avenue, New Haven, 203.624.7646.
The walk is hosted at Rosemary-Choate School and then from this point of central position we walked through the historic part of the city of Wallingford. There was a Dixie Jazz Band and other amusements - like walking on bubblewrap, etc. The day was awesome with the best weather ever and the people were just as great.
So I encourage anyone to commit to this occasion once a year - it is for such a great cause. This past year the group raised around $2500.00 to develop a cure.
If interested call Lisa or George at 203.624.7646 and they will assist in any questions, or concerns you may have with the Walk.
Cheers to All,
Patricia Illingworth
