This week the honor goes to 13-year old Tyler Ruhle of Saratoga Springs. Each year Tyler participates and volunteers for the Tour de Cure, a fund raising event for those with diabetes, a disease that effects some of his family members.

This year, not only did Tyler bike ten miles, but he raised over one thousand dollars. Throughout the event weekend he gave up over twenty four hours of his time to help out where he was needed.

For your commitment to the cause, Tyler you are our kid of the week
