Runners were asked to wear marathon colors - blue and yellow - and the runners surely obliged! Crossfit Florian athletes were among some of those who participated in the run, too.

Charlotte Walsh, the owner of Charles River Running commented that it's a "privilege to be a part of this caring and compassionate community."

What a great way to heal from Monday's tragic events.

Come downtown Saturday!

Norwood Center businesses are coming together in support of those affected by the Boston bombings this Saturday, April 20th.

Susan Lewis of the Norwood Theatre announced on Tuesday that "The Norwood Theatre will be donating 100% of ticket proceeds from our North Shore Acappella show...to The Richard Family Fund." To purchase your tickets, call the box office at 781-551-9000 or visit the website: norwoodstage.com 

UPDATE:
Due to the overwhelming response to The Meetinghouse Bank the Richard Family Fund has been put on hold and the bank will not be accepting donations at this time. We will proceed with the North Shore Acappella show as planned, and donate all ticket proceeds to the family or The One Fund, set up by Governor Patrick and Mayor Menino to support to people most affected by the Boston Marathon Tragedy.

A quick conversation with Susan later and FNC is happily helping to get other businesses offering donations as well!
