As many of you know when my two and half year old son Josh was born he had some complications at birth and was diagnosed with a brain injury. We ended up spending three months in the hospital. Thankfully he made some great progress in his development over the past 2 and half years.

While Josh was in the hospital we lived at the Ronald McDonald House in New Brunswick. Many people think this place is funded totally by McDonalds but they only give a very small percentage of the money it takes to run the houses. I have been volunteering at RMH since all this happened and currently sit on the Board for the Organization.

With the permission of NJReefers Officers, I invite you all to a walk at Great Adventure for Ronald McDonald House of Long Branch and New Brunswick Sunday June 8, 2014. If we can get 20 people to sign up the price will be $50 per person. Otherwise its $75 per person. All registered walkers gain free early admission & parking to Great Adventure the day of the event! Normally $42 plus $22 for parking.

So basically you pay for a day at Great Adventure support a great cause and get a T-Shirt. Please post any interest or questions here. If enough people show interest I will set up a page for NJReefers. If your unable to attend and would like to donate or sponsor another walker please let me know.

Thanks everyone for reading.

Ed, I know how important Ronald McDonald House is. My best friends lived there for five and a half months while their son was in CHOP. I myself stayed in there room while giving them a spell. I am happy your son is doing well. Unfortunately, my godson died almost ten years to the day of his birth. But, what a joy he was for those ten years. I would love to participate in the walk.

Ed, you are doing a wonderful service to RMH and I commend you for giving back to the organization after having gone through the experience your family did and seeing how important that organization is to many families in need.

I'll check with the wife and see if we're available for this event. It looks like a lot of fun and for a great cause.

Great work ed. I'm glad your son is doing much better. His continued success/progress will be in my prayers. When do we need to set this up by?
