A SPECIAL THOUGHT
Kenny Dolan was alive for a brief 23 years. Yet in that time, he not only brought a tremendous amount of joy to a great number of people, but more importantly, he taught them how to laugh, love and have fun.
Tragically, on March 14, 1990 Kenny passed away as a result of an automobile accident. The Kenny Dolan Memorial Fund at Iona University has been established from this race to assist a student in need of financial support for his or her education. It is in this spirit that Kenny will be remembered.
