Ride-Away Norristown is Star Sponsor at Resolution Classic

On the first of this year, Ride-Away Norristown was proud to be the Star Sponsor of the Resolution Classic, put on by the Yes U Can Corporation. The event featured a 5K and 1 mile race, as well as a fundraiser.

The “Yes U Can Corporation” was founded to increase inclusion, awareness and access to health, recreation and physical fitness opportunities for people with limited mobility and disabilities by developing assisted activity programs, forming strategic partnerships and providing valuable resources to the community. As America’s largest provider of modified vehicles and adaptive equipment for people with disabilities, Ride-Away was happy to partner with such a great organization.

Some photos from the event can be seen here, and a highlight video reel can be viewed here.
