Video: AWRA Takes The Ice Bucket Challenge

“The Varsity Girls’ Tennis Team at Saratoga Springs High School recently completed the “pay it forward” ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in memory of Mike Beson. Mike was a longtime friend of mine, who passed away in October of 2013 from ALS. His wife, Elly, shared with all the players her story and the love that she and Mike shared. The players and coaches were so moved by Elly’s talk that the Challenge meant that much more to each of us.

Act With Respect Always was founded on the “paying it forward” movement four years ago. I am thankful to everyone who has joined the AWRA movement.

Please enjoy this article and the video.

What a wonderful experience for all of us.”
