GRAPPLING WITH AUTISM, SEPTEMBER 26 IN LANCASTER


Jonathan Cimins, nephew of Grapplers Quest Founder, Brian Cimins, was diagnosed with Autism at only eighteen months of age. For the last five years, with his brother Paul and the Cimins family, they’ve created “Jonathan’s Team” to help support Autism Awareness and help raise funds for Education, Treatments, and hopefully a Cure at each Grapplers Quest Submission Grappling and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Tournament nationwide.
