Rider Community Participates
in Heart Walk
 |
| Nearly
50 members of the Rider community from the Lawrenceville
and Princeton campuses came out in full force Sunday, September
16, to participate in the American Heart Association’s
Heart Walk. The Rider community pulled together on that sunny
day to raise nearly $5,000 to help combat heart disease. This
was the second consecutive year that Rider partnered with
the AHA to support this worthy cause. |
23rd Annual Athletics Golf Gala
 |
Olde York Country Club in Chesterfield, N.J., provided
the perfect venue for the 23rd Annual Athletics Golf Gala
outing on Monday, September 17. One hundred sixty eight
participants teed it up during two shotgun starts in a fun
scramble format. Scores were generally low, as the brilliant
weather produced pristine scoring conditions for all golfers.

Golf Gala Committee Chair; Dan Faber, executive director
of the National Junior Tennis League of Trenton; and Mike
Minter, financial advisor for Merrill Lynch, who partnered
with Frank Lucchesi, not pictured, to shoot an impressive
15-under-par 56. Golf was followed by a cocktail reception
and buffet dinner where guests enjoyed a seafood bar, carving
station and ice cream sundaes while placing their bids on
several silent auction items. A great time was had by all
participants, but the Rider Athletics program was the true
beneficiary as more than $100,000.00 was raised to support
its 20 NCAA Division I teams.
