RFHS Student Club Raises Money For Monmouth County SPCA

Rumson-Fair Haven students Devon Reid, Taylor Pfrang, Avery Fratto and Alyssa Lucci raised more than $450 for the Monmouth County SPCA.

RUMSON, NJ — They didn't let a little rain stop them! This past weekend the Rumson-Fair Haven High School Paws and Claws club held a Running for Rescues race to benefit the Monmouth County SPCA.

The club, represented by members Devon Reid, Taylor Pfrang, Avery Fratto, Alyssa Lucci and coordinator Jessica Mentzal, raised more than $450 for the Monmouth County SPCA. Despite adverse conditions and a steady rainfall, students, family, and staff members such as media specialist Justin Langlois were also in attendance.

In the one-mile race around the track behind the school, the top male finisher was Sean Corbley and the top female finisher was Devon Reid. A representative from the Monmouth County SPCA came and shared information about their organization. She brought pictures, pamphlets, and would have brought puppies had the sun come out.
