Hundreds Walk For Support Connection

18th Annual Support-A-Walk at FDR Park

Hundreds of people participated in the Support Connection's 18th Annual Support-A-Walk at FDR State Park in Yorktown Sunday morning.

The event included a 3-mile walk through the park along with live entertainment and other activities to raise awareness of the needs of people fighting breast and ovarian cancer.

Many participants wore shirts or signs stating who they were walking either in memory of or in support of, and pink was the predominant color of most.

Proceeds went to help fund Support Connection's support services for those in need.

First of all, I don't understand why teachers are paying for anything out of pocket when the supplyRead More lists that parents receive at the end of the summer are as long as their arms. Secondly, SOCIETY lets the kids down?!?!? I think the school taxes in Yorktown should be sufficient so that the teachers don't have to pay any out-of-pocket expenses. SOCIETY does not let the kids down, it is those who are in control of the school tax monies who let the kids down. Perhaps the administrators should take salary cuts, or maybe we should even eliminate some of those administrative positions. No teacher should have to pay for supplies out of pocket.
