In light of the recent surge in domestic violence incidents across our region, Sheriff Nick Cocchi is once again teaming up with the YWCA of Western Massachusetts. Together, they're on a mission to raise awareness, fight this disturbing trend, and provide much-needed support to victims.
Lately, we've seen some heartbreaking domestic violence cases in Western Massachusetts, with tragic outcomes that have shaken our community. The upcoming 2024 Sheriff’s Shuffle race/walk is dedicated to benefiting the YWCA, with a clear focus on empowering victims and stepping in before situations turn fatal.
Join us on Sunday, September 29, 2024, at 10:30 a.m. at the beautiful Ashley Reservoir - Elks Lodge in Holyoke for a day that’s about more than just a run or walk—it’s about making a real difference. Your presence matters whether you’re up for the 5K run or prefer the 1.5-mile walk. Registration opens at 9:00 a.m. inside the Elks Lodge, and we’ll kick things off with a brief ceremony at 10:30 a.m.
This family-friendly fall event will have something for everyone—refreshments, food, awards, a raffle, the chance to meet service animals, and live entertainment. Plus, parking is a breeze with overflow spots nearby and a convenient shuttle service before and after the event.
