Robbinsville residents of the two-legged and four-legged variety will have a chance to take a walk, while giving back to a community member.

On Oct. 27, there will be a K-9 walk to benefit Robbinsville Police Lt. Scott Texidor, who sustained a life-altering injury that has left him confined to a wheelchair. The 5-kilometer walk will be on the new cross-country course at Robbinsville High School, and is for humans and dogs. Refreshments will be served by event sponsors, and all dogs will receive a doggy bag filled with treats. Dogs dressed for Halloween will receive a special treat.

The walk starts at 9 a.m. In-person registrations starts at 8 a.m.

Cost for those who register before Oct. 6 is $20. After Oct. 6, it is $25 per person. Kids 12 and younger are $12. All registered participants will receive a T-shirt. The proceeds of the event will go to Texidor.

Checks should be made payable to PBA Local 344, and mailed to: Robbinsville Township Police Department, Attn: SOA Local 344, 1117 Route 130, Robbinsville, NJ 08691. For those who can’t participate but would like to contribute, all donations can be sent to the same address.

For more information, contact Danielle Huddleston at (609) 918-0002, ext. 102 or RPD Lt. Sandy Bainbridge at (609) 259-3900.
