MARQUETTE, MI – (Great Lakes Radio News) – The 11th annual MARESA Transition Program fundraiser is coming up this Saturday at the Dry Dock Bar & Grill in Harvey.
Program volunteer Christie Houle and MARESA teacher Nancy Isaacson joined The SUNNY Morning Show with Walt & Mike recently to promote the event.
According to Houle, the event features a 90-mile snowmobile fun ride that starts and ends at the Dry Dock along with a party featuring food, door prizes, gifts and a silent auction. Registration starts at the Dry Dock at 8:00 am Saturday with the first riders out at 9:00 am.
Isaacson says the funds raised go to the Marquette-Alger Regional Education Service Agency’s Transition Program. It is designed to assist young adults with special needs in their evolution from students to community citizens.
