Join the Men's Lacrosse team at the WellockStrong Capitol Dash on 11/17

Friends of CUA Men's Lacrosse, please consider supporting this year's Cardinals in the Community event, the WellockStrong Capitol Dash on Saturday, November 17, 2012 at 10 am!  Members of the CUA men's lacrosse team, along with others who wish to participate, will be running the National Mall Loop from the U.S. Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial and back to raise money for the Wellock Family. 

On July 26, 2012, Bill Wellock, an alumnus of Catholic University and father of men's lacrosse sophomore Chris Wellock, was in a traumatic, life-altering accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down.  Bill is among the "5%" that his cardiac surgeon stated survives the extensive injuries he received.  After a few setbacks, Bill is now slowly recovering at the Magee Rehabilitation Hospital in Philadelphia, Pa., and hopes to be discharged soon.

Proceeds collected supporting the WellockStrong Capitol Dash will go to the Wellock family to support ongoing medical and rehabilitation expenses.  Donations of any amount will be accepted by members of the Cardinals men's lacrosse team in the form of check or money order, payable to Catholic Lacrosse CSP.

Mail Donations to:

Anyone interested in joining the team and participating in the run, please RSVP to Chris Wellock: 63wellock@cardinalmail.cua.edu.  Check-in for the WellockStrong Capitol Dash will be at 10 a.m. on Saturday, November 17, 2012 at 3rd Street & Pennsylvania Avenue NW (see image below).  There will be prizes for the participant who raises the MOST FUNDS and for the WINNER of the Capitol Dash!
