After the RUN/WALK FOR TARA last year, the family set up a Scholarship Fund at the Eating Disorder Program at Ramuda Ranch in Wickenburg, Arizona, one of the programs that helped Tara. Because of the scholarship assistance one young woman was able to participate in that Eating Disorder Program this year.  If you would like to contribute to this year's effort, please send a check by December 1st to The Tara Fund, c/o John and Maureen Sheehan, 127 Pomeroy Meadow Rd., Southampton, MA 01073.
