Sean’s Run 2012

It’s that time of year again! The time you’ve all been waiting for! It’s time to get ready for Sean’s Run 2012 - the best way for runners to get an early start on the season while doing good!

Just in case you don’t already have it on your calendar, April 28th (Saturday), 2012 marks the date of Sean’s Run from Autism 2012, the annual, scenic, out and back, fundraising run/walk to benefit Autism Research and Resources of Oregon (ARRO).

2012 marks the 5th year of our annual ARROAutism fundraising run, and the second year that funds raised will help contribute to the ARROAutism Westside Family and Community Center; the first step towards ARRO’s Mission to create an Autism Center in Oregon.

Every runner, walker, and supporter, whether man, woman or child, who joins us for the 5K, 10K, kids run, and/or to cheer from the sidelines, is helping make a difference for Sean, and in the lives of thousands of adults and children throughout Oregon and SW Washington.
