Letter Read To “Carlie’s Crusade” And “REACT” Participants

CORNWALL, NY, March 24, 2004 – DJs Arena in Newburgh is a place to go for baseball, basketball and golf practice usually, but, for the next two Tuesday’s it’s a place for “Carlie’s Crusade” to meet and learn special defense tactics for children, especially young girls. It’s a very loud place but last night’s opening of the free clinic a letter was read that despite the background sounds, the words were loud and clear! The letter is written by Andrea Brucia, Carlie Brucia’s Grandmother in support of Carlie’s Crusade:
