in the nation with the spectacular views that only Yosemite National park can provide.

The Water falls, 3000 foot granite walls of Half Dome and El Capitan will take your breath away.

BENEFIT
This Run benefits two great causes:
Mrs. Gail White-Stickles of Mariposa, who is recovering from back surgery after a tragic ladder fall.
Insurance is not covering the massive medical bills.
Kids headed to college and Gail (a popular) Yoga instructor, is obviously out of work.
and...
ASES (After School Education & Safety) Program.
This amazing program provides safe and educational environment for over 80 kids after school.
Kids from the Mariposa Middle School participate in numerous community projects
including for the kids at Valley Children's Hospital, seniors in assisted living centers
and many other projects. ASES needs funds to buy supplies.
