Drop the Gloves with ALS: You may remember Emily Noble from a My Glens Falls feature a few years back (and you probably also know her as the Muffin Top Baker!). Her husband, Marcus, was diagnosed with ALS in early 2021 at the age of 33. They’ve organized the first annual Drop the Gloves hockey tournament, which will raise funds for the St. Peter’s ALS Regional Center through team registration, raffles and silent auctions, and a GoFundMe page for those not able to attend the event but still wish to make a difference (click here to donate). Games will take place this weekend at the Glens Falls Recreation Center Ice Rink and you can expect live music, food trucks, and beer, of course! Get the details and schedule here!

From Emily: “Living with ALS is overwhelming and expensive as Marcus and I have found. We were fortunate enough to be connected to the St. Peter’s ALS Regional Center in Albany for help navigating this disease. The clinic helps us understand what to expect and how to be as prepared as possible. The St Peter’s Clinic has impacted the lives of so many people and after experiencing it first hand, we’d like to help give back to them.”

Enjoy the weekend,
Bri + Tom
