OCTOBER 26, 2008, Jersey Shore Running Club's Trick or Trot Jersey Shore Running Club's 15th annual Trick or Trot was run to benefit the MCSPCA's Homeward Bound Capital Campaign and it was a huge success! Nearly 400 runners (many in costume!) participated on a gorgeous day to run along the Long Branch oceanfront. There were kids races, and costume parades for both humans and dogs!



The event generated over $10,000 in sponsorships alone. Thank you to race directors Mary Moriarty and Tom Morrison of JSRC (shown to the left) and MCSPCA organizers Jean Hager and Maryann Small (shown to the right) and everyone else who helped make this event such a success!
