'Scarnati 100' to Benefit Hospital
WARREN — Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati (R-Jefferson) will kick off a three-day, 100-mile bike ride on Saturday, October 3 at 10:00 a.m. to benefit the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. The event is called the “Scarnati 100.”
“The Children’s Hospital has been a wonderful asset to many children not only across Pennsylvania, but across the country as well,” Scarnati said. “The Hospital has touched the lives of my children and me, and this event is a way in which we can give a little back.”
Scarnati said that the bike ride will start in Punxsutawney and end in Pittsburgh on October 5 at the Children’s Hospital, where proceeds raised will be delivered to hospital officials. Riders will arrive at the facility at approximately 11:00 a.m.
The schedule will be as follows:
Punxsutawney to Blairsville - 48 miles
Blairsville to Murrysville - 44 miles
Murrysville to Pittsburgh - 17 miles
“To really make a difference, it is vital that we get as many sponsors and riders as possible,” Scarnati added. “I am hopeful that we can raise significant dollars to aid this wonderful health care facility and assist them in continuing their standard of excellence in pediatric care.”
If anyone would like to make a contribution to the Scarnati 100, please send donations to Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh Foundation, Scarnati 100, 1251 Waterfront Place, 5th floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4209. Corporate checks are welcome and all checks should include Scarnati 100.
