WISD to host Ride for Life founder Christopher Pendergast, tomorrow

Christopher Pendergast, founder of "Ride For Life," a non-for-profit local charity for the support and awareness of Lou Gehrig's Disease, will be speaking at Oquenock Elementary School on Friday, March 14th at 10 a.m.

Chris is in his 14th year with Lou Gehrig's Disease and his Ride from Montauk to Manhattan will be his 11th this year in May. The Ride will come through the Oquenock School circle with Chris and his fellow patients, who travel in motorized wheelchairs, some on vents and/or feeding tubes the length of Long Island.

You can learn more by going to the website www.rideforlife.com. I hope you will be able to stop in and meet Chris in person.
