Spenny’s restaurant in Reading was bleeding green. For the 4th year, they hosted the Eagles Autism Foundation Fundraiser for TeamTylerC!<\/p>\n
Spencer Corson co-owns Spenny’s and helped organize the event.<\/p>\n
“We have such a great community and people involved and such a great turnout. We love people that show up in their Eagle’s gear,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s just about the community involvement, and everyone’s passion and love, and such a great day. The vibes are always so high; everyone’s just positive and happy,\u201d Corson added.<\/p>\n

The event has been going on in Berks County for the past 10 years, thanks to Tyler\u2019s mom, Stephanie Stricker.<\/p>\n
She formed TeamTylerC with the Eagles Autism Foundation a couple of years after her son, Tyler Crespo, was diagnosed.<\/p>\n
“He was diagnosed with autism at the age of three, so we were just looking for an outlet to kind of find support and get him involved and find a community, and we certainly have,” said Stricker.<\/p>\n
She said this is their main fundraiser and it’s grown every year.<\/p>\n
“We’ve had an overwhelming support from the community,” said Stricker.<\/p>\n
“Our team has been gracious, and we’ve been able to raise over $100,000 in 10 years span for the Eagle Autism Foundation,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Eagle’s mascot Swoop was on hand, and for the first time, some of the cheerleaders came along. All of them posed for pictures with fans.<\/p>\n

This year’s fundraiser was not only the biggest one yet. It certainly pleased the man of the hour, Tyler himself.<\/p>\n
“You know, I just like it all,” said Crespo.<\/p>\n
“We’re just so grateful for all the support over the past 10 years, and going forward, we couldn’t do without the communities’ support,\u201d Stricker said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"READING, Pa. – It wasn\u2019t game day, but Eagles fans were still bringing the energy \u2014 all for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":308959,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[89571,349,8783,4064,51434,126549,736,128,130,129,126550,126551,126548,6673],"class_list":["post-308958","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-reading","tag-autism-awareness","tag-berks-county","tag-cheesesteaks","tag-eagles","tag-eagles-autism-foundation","tag-eagles-cheerleaders","tag-reading","tag-reading-city","tag-reading-city-headlines","tag-reading-city-news","tag-spennys","tag-spennys-steaks","tag-swoop","tag-vendors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308958","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308958"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308958\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/308959"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308958"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308958"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308958"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
