Scioto Downs to host Pacing For The Cure on July 15

from Pacing For The Cure

Pacing For The Cure is pleased to announce the next stop in the 2017 Tour Date schedule at the Scioto Downs Racetrack on Saturday (July 15) from 3-11 p.m. The event will include a walk around the racetrack before the races for a $10 donation. Donations can be made online at www.pacingforthecure.org/donate and the email receipt can be brought to the event.

The surrounding local community, network of supporters and all harness racing enthusiasts are invited to join us for an evening of fun while raising awareness about Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Once again this year, Pacing For The Cure will be honoring a special MS Survivor guest – this time Edna (Emily Hay’s mother) from Ohio.

Pacing For The Cure is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that is dedicated to helping MS survivors obtain necessary medical equipment and services to manage this debilitating disease of the central nervous system. Elaine, an MS survivor from Pennsylvania, is a recent recipient of a scooter through Pacing For The Cure,

“Thank you Janine and Jeff. My scooter provides me greater freedom to get around in my space constrained apartment and makes it easier to get to my medical appointments.”

Shannon, another MS survivor from Ohio and an avid harness racing fan, recently received assistance for medical services.

Pacing for Cure was able to help me financially by covering some of the costs that my insurance did not pay.”

A mobility aid application is available at www.pacingforthecure.org for individuals seeking financial assistance for medical equipment or services.

Pacing For The Cure also provides funding to the Multiple Sclerosis Research Institute (MSRI) founded by Dr. Jeffrey Greenstein, renowned MS researcher and practitioner. Dr. Greenstein is actively involved in cutting edge human immunology research to find a cure.

Please start organizing walk teams for this fun event. Pledge forms can be obtained by emailing events@pacingforthecure.org.

The Pacing For The Cure walk and evening at the races is a great way to socialize, meet new friends, and enjoy the sport of harness racing while raising money to help MS survivors in need.
