Welcome to Taylor's Heroes
Taylor’s Heroes is a non-profit organization that provides fitness and nutrition programs to children who want to lead a more active and healthy lifestyle.
The organization was founded in memory of Taylor Miller, who was a Saratoga Springs High School graduate who was killed in Afghanistan in a suicide bomb attack on June 21, 2010.
Like many children, Taylor had struggled throughout his life with his weight and fitness. But prior to enlisting in the Army, Taylor set his sights on a specific goal of becoming physically fit. Through his own determination, and the support of friends and family, he lost over 60 pounds. He went from not being able to run more than a few yards, to running miles. Most importantly, he built his confidence and self-esteem in the process.
Unfortunately, Taylor’s life was cut short at age 19, just as he was enjoying all the benefits of being fit and healthy. To honor Taylor’s memory, Taylor’s Heroes would like to help you find the success Taylor experienced while you are young and have a lifetime to enjoy it.
Taylor's Heroes has begun accepting applications for its September program. For more information, please email us at info@taylorsheroes.org.

Our first graduates of Taylor's Heroes!
Our first graduates of Taylor's Heroes! We are so proud of our boys! Not only did they receive an " I'm a hero" tee shirt that only participants in the program earn but they also were awarded gift certificates for Dick's Sporting Goods. The highest honor is the fact that they are the first of the thousands we plan to help.

Rockin' On Toward Saturday
Five days and counting and we are counting on you!
The Refrigerators have the play list, the menu is ready, silent auction items are pouring in, so it’s time to get ready!
If you’re into the costume side of Rock of Ages, Google 1980’s clothing and you will find plenty of great ideas.
Ready to do some holiday shopping? The Silent Auction has everything from earrings to x-county ski rentals, eateries to wine!.
How about vacations in Florida to watch the Mets at spring training, or a weekend in Long Beach, CA when winter has gotten to you ?
The committee has been toying with what kind of Henna tattoo to get before things get crazy at her table. This is all the fun of a tattoo and no lingering commitment.
So grab some friends and buy some tickets now while they are still only $65. They are $75 at the door and you know you’re going to come to the party~ save the money and use that savings to buy a souvenir tee shirt at the party.
Did I mention there is free beer and wine courtesy of Saratoga Eagle and Empire North Distributers?!
And if you want to make Saturday a complete night out contact Leslie Miller at 518-226-0051 for more information on special rates for overnight rooms at the Residence Inn or Courtyard by Marriott.
You have to love this area~ people really know how to get behind a great cause.
