It was both an honor and a pleasure to be asked if I could provide the music and announcements for the Syracuse 2012 Walk MS, to benefit the Upstate New York Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. The beautiful weather brought thousands to Long Branch Park in Liverpool, and you'll see in the photos... a popular Syracuse TV personality even made an appearance!
