Our personal message:

Please join John's family and friends as we celebrate his life and help raise money for a great cause in his honor.  We will be doing a 5K run (or walk) on Saturday October 4, 2008 along the Charles River.

Johnny was known as the generous gift giver in his family, and we can keep his generosity alive by raising money and awareness for the Samaritans.  I think John would be pleased that we are trying to help others in his name.

Join us on John's team for the Run for Someone Else's Life.  We're running for Johnny under the name Team Persevere because of his "Persevere" tattoo!

This is the Samaritans tenth Annual Run/Walk, "Run for Someone Else's Life," along the Charles. There will be festivities to follow, which include live music, games, refreshments and a kid's race.

WHEN: Saturday, October 4, 2008

  • Registration: 8:00 a.m.
  • Race: 10:00 a.m.
  • Awards: 11:00 a.m.

WHERE: Artesani Park, 1234 Soldiers Field Rd Road in Brighton. View Map and Get Directions.

REGISTRATION: Take advantage of pre-registration today for $15! Pre-registration prices are available through September 27, 2008.

To sign up, please go http://www.samaritansofboston.org/5k.html and go to "Register Online."  Click on the box that says "I am participating in a team that is new this year" and then type in "John Barron - Team Persevere".
