Our whole Strutt Program Camp was nominated by Miss Morgan Coe to do the ALS Ice! We powered through filming with a freezing torrential downpour for two minutes while doing this! Instead of just dumping ice water on our head we decided to all learn one fact about ALS and share it with the world on our video. None of us prior to taking this challenge knew very much about the ALS disease! Now our awareness has grown and we hope yours does too. We have nominated the Peterborough Police Department!
