YMCA Receives $10,500 From Fundraiser Event
Proceeds from this year's Corners to Crossings races presented to Fowler Family YMCA.
Debbie Timm on behalf of the Corners to Crossing race committee presented a check on May 26 in the amount of $10,500 to the Fowler Family YMCA Partner With Youth campaign.
The proceeds were collected from the The Corners to Crossing race, which began in 2008 as a way to bring together the two communities of Peachtree Corners and Norcross. This was the 4th annual race with more than 600 runners participating this year.
"The annual Corners to Crossing race is a great fundraiser for the Y and great event for both communities," said Timm.
