Greenburgh Poised For Community ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- Those who have watched with interest, envy or trepidation while thousands of people have taken the Ice Bucket Challenge to support research and assistance to those suffering with ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease will have an opportunity to join in Greenburgh.

Greenburgh employees and residents will take the Ice Bucket Challenge, like this group in Pelham, to raise funds to battle ALS.
