“Dear Friends, Neighbors, Volunteers, Spinners, and Sponsors:

We want to thank all of you for participating in our 2nd Annual Team Zoey Spin for Life at LHY. Because of YOU we have raised over $20,000 and pledges are still coming in!

Congratulations to Karen Carolonza, who rode the entire 4 hours for the 2nd year in a row, AMAZING!  We had seven volunteer Spin Instructors who did a fabulous job of keeping the spinners motivated throughout the day and an incredible group of volunteers who worked to check in spinners, give out our t-shirts and keep them hydrated with our Team Zoey smoothies.

We also gave away several fabulous prizes. The Grand Prize 6 days at the Ritz Carlton in the Cayman Islands was won by Sally and John Qualter. Several Prizes were donated by the Lakeland Hills Y and staff trainers. Second Prize-Kathleen Nagurka Free Family Y Membership,

Third Prize-Jump start Personal Training with Rich Mutterpurl-Donna Donofrio.

So, on behalf of PRF, Team Zoey and all the children with Progeria, we would like to thank you for all your help making the SPIN FOR LIFE so successful.

Together we WILL find the cure!”
