GALOSHES GALLOP
Galoshes gallop is the annual fund-raiser for the Work Unlimited adolescent program
serving youth with developmental disabilities. It is a delightful and fun time for
groups and families. September 17th at 1:00 people who have not pre-registered can
register at the Gazebo at Minto Brown Park in Salem. Cost for a team is $20. The
Gallop starts at 1:30. Participants will gallop, run, walk, stroll or skip around a
short course as many times as they can in the hour. As they pass by staff stationed
along the route they will receive tickets for passing by, smiling, doing a bit of
dance or song. The tickets are the currency for the live auction held at 2:30. Prizes
will be auctioned to the highest bidder. Teams can pool their tickets to increase
their auction power. Companies and individuals in the community donate prizes. To
donate items please call Geri Newton at 503-363-6347 or email her at
gerinewton@live.com.
She will arrange for a pick up of a donated item. You can receive a letter for your
tax-deductible donation.
Checks for registration or donation can be made out to Work Unlimited and mailed to:
