Chief Warrant Officer Dan Prial, a helicopter pilot and member of the New York National Guard, died in an helicopter accident on Jan. 20 just outside of Rochester. The 30-year-old Prial, the son of Anne and Greg Prial of Warwick, was a graduate of St. Stephen-St. Edward School, Warwick Valley High School and U.S. Military Academy at West Point.
The Find Your Small Thing Charity Run in honor of Danny Prial will take place on Saturday, June 12, at St. Stephen’s Church.
“Danny was a hero like no other,” said organizer Thomas Nafash. “His kindness, humility and humor touched the lives of everyone he knew. This event is our chance to give back to the world the way Danny did.
Donations will be raised for the Small Things Inc. non-profit to benefit local businesses.
Donations are requested via Venmo to the username Thomas-Nafash.
Unlike a traditional charity run, there will be no formal registration or start time.
Participants invited to “find your small thing,” whether that be a 5k walk or marathon.
“You can start and finish at the church,” Nafash said, “but we encourage everybody to come to the church and enjoy the community that Danny so loved.”
More information will be announced in the coming months so please follow “Find Your Small Thing Charity Run” on Facebook for details.
