This November 11th will be the tenth annual race held in memory of Tara Sheehan, who died in February 2002 after a long struggle with anorexia. Tara was a loving and caring young woman who helped many people during her short life. She was also an avid long-distance runner and a member of Williston Northampton School’s 1991 New England champion cross-country team.
The Run/Walk for Tara is hosted by the Williston Northampton School at their Galbraith Field cross country course and supported by many generous sponsors. All proceeds benefit the Tara Fund, which provides grants to eating disorder education and treatment programs. If you would like to contribute to this year’s effort, please send a check to The Tara Fund, c/o John and Maureen Sheehan, 127 Pomeroy Meadow Rd., Southampton, MA 01073.
