Lucas McCoy, a senior at River View High School, loves the outdoors. He enjoys hunting, fishing, and working with his hands. But his life changed instantly on July 24 while swimming with family and friends. As he dove into the pool, Lucas broke his neck and shattered his vertebrae. After emergency surgery to save his life and several weeks in the hospital, Lucas is home and according to his family, he is doing pretty good, but is now paralyzed. Out of that tragedy, the community of Warsaw has come together to support Lucas and his family. As the school administration was deciding to do a fundraiser for Lucas, Senior Class President Shawn Walters, who has known Lucas since 5th grade, approached Principal Chuck Rinkes, and said that the Senior Class Officers had decided to have a 5K Run with all proceeds going to help Lucas and his family. “Lucas is a good kid,” said Rinkes. “He has a great attitude about this whole situation. When I hear other kids talk about having bad days or they have a bad attitude about the situation they’re in or may not be a very good day for them and they’re kind of down in the dumps, he’s kind of one to point to and say, look at the situation he’s in, look at the attitude he has. It makes their day not look so gloom and doom. He’s been a sense of encouragement for other kids.” The 5K Walk/Run/Roll for Recovery for

WHAT: 5K Run/Walk/Roll for Recovery FOR: Lucas McCoy, senior at River View WHEN: Saturday, Oct. 29 WHERE: Lake Park Complex TIME: 10 a.m. COST: Adults - $25 Students - $20 Lucas McCoy will be Saturday, Oct. 29 at 10 a.m. at Lake Park. As of Thursday, Oct. 20, 179 people have pre-registered and Walters said that number is growing every day. There will also be registration the day of the event at Lake Park. Cost for adults is $25 and cost for students is $20. In addition to the 5K Run, the school administration is selling bracelets for $2 that say ‘RVHS Lucas McCoy Strength-HopeDetermination’. “That’s kind of been the mantra of what he has gone through and what we hope will be his recovery, for strength, hope and determination, not only for himself, but for all of us to help him,” said Rinkes. The school ordered 500 bracelets, and they were sold out in less than a week. Another 500 bracelets have arrived and will be on sale throughout the 5K Run. A portion of the proceeds from the Student Council’s annual bake sale will also go to Lucas. As of Thursday, Oct. 20, the community has raised $5,500, and Principal Rinkes has no doubt that number will reach $7,000. This money includes donations, participants who have preregistered, and sponsors from local business and individuals, who will have their name printed on a t-shirt available to all participants who have pre-registered. “I appreciate what people have already done,” said Joanne Nys, Lucas’ mother, “Our friends and family and people that don’t even know us have donated.” Lucas is slowly starting to come back to school. He comes to school two days a week for half a day and then goes to the Dodd Research Hospital at Ohio State for rehabilitation three days a week. For those who would like to donate but cannot come to the event, please send donations to Lucas McCoy Fund/ P.O. Box 386/Warsaw, Ohio 43844. Donations are welcome and appreciated.
