MONDAY, 26 JULY 2010

Eden Autism Services� 7th annual Eden Autism 5k Race and 1-Mile Fun Run, sponsored by Munich Re, took place this past Sunday and broke its fundraising record with more than $80,000 in net proceeds.

Held at the Princeton Forrestal Village, the morning was filled with plenty of fun and entertainment, including a martial arts demonstration by students from Can Do Fitness and a performance by children�s entertainer Mr. Ray. Both the 5K and the Fun Run began with a shotgun start fired off by Plainsboro Mayor Peter Cantu. Race Director, Curt Emmich of Princeton Forrestal Center, did a fantastic job organizing the many runners, walkers, volunteers and guests who attended the event. He thanked the many individuals and companies who sponsored the race and/or provided in-kind donations or donated items for the raffle.

�We are extremely grateful to all those who contributed to help make this race a success,� says Emmich. �Thanks to our generous community we have exceeded last year�s record breaking proceeds.�
