Falmouth Road Race
The AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod (ASGCC) will have
five runners in the legendary Falmouth Road Race, and each runner
is seeking to raise at least $750 for the organization. Local community
members are urged to support the runners with donations.
ASGCC client Stephen Kovacev, who ran the Boston
Marathon in April, will be participating this year. Robert
Ross, the ASGCC Board President, will be running side by
side with Kovacev and James Connors, another client.
In addition, the father-daughter team of Richard and Ingrid
Epstein of Boston will round out the five entries. All
express their pride in being able to participate in such a prestigious
race, but especially because they can also be raising funds for
Cape Cod’s only AIDS agency.
Please make out all checks to ASGCC and mail to
