By Staff Report | Neighborhood Buzz

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Over 400 people participated in a 10K walk on April 28 at the Saratoga Spa State Park, raising more than $11,000 for the Gabby Wolpert Fund and the American Cancer Society.

Five-year-old Gabby, the daughter of Kevin and Erica Wolpert of Saratoga Springs, is being treated for cancer at Albany Medical Center. Her father is the math department chair at Saratoga Springs High School, and the family was supported by nearly 100 high school students and many Saratoga Springs City School District employees who participated in the event. The walkers wore t-shirts bearing the event’s official name: “I Am a Wolpert Warrior.”
