Support TEAM ICL

What are you doing on November 7th?  We're looking for spirited people to support and rally our TEAM ICL runners along as they make their way through the five boroughs during the 2010 ING NYC Marathon. We're pulling together Cheer Stations (and need more volunteers) and are seeking big-hearted and supportive businesses to underwrite participation. A special thanks goes out to Vassalotti Associates, Edelman Sultan Wood Knox and Bollinger Insurance for their generous support for TEAM ICL. To get involved, contact dhantman@iclinc.org.
