Redstone Golf Club - November 15, 2010 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2010 Chevron Houston Marathon On January 17, 2010, over 26,000 runners participated in one
of the four Chevron Houston Marathon events (marathon, half marathon,
5K run and children's run). This premier winter event raised 1.8
million dollars for local charities and PDAP was truly honored to be
one of those charities! PDAP was one of (46) charities selected
out of (140) applicants to participate in the Chevron Houston
Marathon's Run for a Resaon Program. This was the Palmer Drug Abuse Progrma's first year to
participate in this program and it was such a blessing. We
developed many new community partnerships, had the opportunity to build
new relationships with those in our community as well as raise
additional funds for our program. Thanks to Direct Energy,
PDAP Heroes, runners, and other supporters, PDAP's "12-Steps for a Drug Free Future "
campaign raised approximately $19,000. These funds will help the
Palmer Drug Abuse Program continue providing free prevention and
recovery programs to the youth and parents in our community desperately
seeking our help. Thanks again to all of those who made this fundriasing
campaign a success! Meet
Two of Our Runners: Sarah Ward and her son Zach
