12- year-old Mia O'Brien is working hard on a very special project for her Girl Scout Silver Award. She is holding the "Graeme Preston Memorial Soccer Marathon" in honor of her former soccer coach's son who died from injuries sustained in a car accident last March.
Freehold Soccer League, the Freehold Township Parks and Rec, and the Battle of Monmouth are all working in conjunction with her project. The marathon is Aug. 23rd from 8am to 8pm at Opatut Park in Freehold Township. Other traveling teams and participants of the marathon include the Freehold Township High School and Feehold Boro High School girls soccer teams, and adult teams are eligible, too.
In addition to the continuous playing of soccr, there will be other fun stuff. All proceeds will benefit the already instated "Graeme Preston Foundation for Life".
