Robbie’s Run

Hey everyone! We have Robbie’s Run comming up this Sunday, April 26th at Levy Lakeside Elementary on Merrick Road. This run is in memory of Robbie Levine who died when his heart stopped during Little League practice and there was no defibrillator at the site to help revive him. We are raising money to make sure that such a tragedy won’t happen again and that a defibrillator will always be available at schools and anywhere else they may be needed. Please sign up and come support the cause by distributing snacks, cheering on the runners, or even running yourself!
