Memorial Day

On a day that fills our social consciousness with sales and BBQs, we'd like to remind you to take a moment for remembrance of our fallen heroes, both from the Matawan Theater community and all over the country. They gave their lives for our country and our freedom.

A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.
— Joseph Campbell

Thank you.

Team MTAA Wins at the AIDS Walk

The AIDS Walk was a WIN. Team MTAA had 10 walkers who each completed the 10K walk this past Sunday. We're grateful for excellent weather, as well as for all of you who donated to our team. Donations are still trickling in, and to date, we have raised over $2,100 to help the battle against AIDS. Congratulations Team MTAA!!!

So far, AIDS Walk NY 2010 has raised over 5.7 MILLION dollars. Over 3000 teams registered (Team MTAA was in the top 10% in fundraising), and 45,000 walkers were present on Sunday.

Donations will be accepted through June 4th. To donate, please visit our team fundraising page.

To see the live tweets from the AIDS Walk, search #teamMTAA on twitter for updates, locations, musings, and photos. And there are some video blogs from the walk in the works.

Again, a huge "thank you" to everyone who supported us on the Walk, and an even huger "congratulations" to the Walk participants.

And stay tuned - a June MTAA event will be announced soon!
