Join Chucky and TJ's "Dream Team" for the

2016 Tri-Cities Marathon Run

For the past few years, The Arc of Tri-Cities has been changing the way people think of the word “athlete.”  With the help of dozens of volunteer runners and many generous donations, young adults with developmental disabilities are  able to compete in the Tri-City Rivers & Wine Marathon each October.

Last year, Chucky Maugh and Dominic Charvet completed all 26.2 miles of the course, which spans all three cities, with the assistance of their volunteer “wheelchair propulsion” team.  Dominic isn’t shy about showing off his medal and will gladly inform you that he beat Chuck.

This year, Chucky will have some new competition from TJ Ellis. On October 30th, both young men and their volunteer “wheelchair propulsion” team will run the course, which spans all three cities, and cross the finish line.

Without your help and that of the Tri-Cities' community, Chucky and TJ would not be able to participate in this marathon. So partner with us, The Arc, and volunteer to be a part of a "Wheelchair Propulsion Dream Team" and/or donate to this wonderful and fun cause and be rewarded with their amazing smiles on race day. Please, fill out the online form and/or stop by The Arc's office, today.

 The Arc helps make participation possible for the developmentally disabled, in this event and other exciting community events through charitable donations, volunteers and generous sponsors, such as Smart, Connell, Childers, & Verhulp, P.S..

If Chucky and TJ's story inspires you, spread the word and help support this and other events within our community.  Donations can be made at The Arc's office and/or  online. Watch our website at www.arcoftricities.com  for future events and other upcoming volunteer and/or sponsorship opportunities.
