Subject: 31st BMSR / Celtic Classic 5K is in the books !!
Dear BMS Rotarians:
Our Club put on an excellent 5K experience for the participants in the midst of a cancelled parade and the outer bands of tropical storm Ophelia.
We hosted the 72 valiant runners that showed up out of the 127 registered.
Thanks to all our volunteers.
To paraphrase George Orwell: "All volunteers are equal, but some volunteers are more equal than others."
All did their part, however Mike Long's course management and Jeff Kicska's on-line registration and electronic scoring were instrumental in race success.
At this Thursday's meeting, President Betty will have some leftover race t-shirts for those who would like one.
At a future meeting, we will debrief on the race and the financial results.
Thank you all for another great 5K event.
TK
And a very special THANK YOU! to Race Director, Tom Kolepp who managed many, many challenges throughout the process - changing venues, coordinating various groups, and having the last minute impact of running a race on an alternative course in a tropical storm! Well done Sir.... and thanks to all for their support!
