We had 12 at our first meeting. Karen Hohman was elected President. She is a busy lady and needs your support or you might be stuck with the presidents job.
Sam mentioned that he thought the running club would stand on three main legs. 1) The weekly run-walk get together. 2) Monthly meeting with an educational program associated with running, walking, exercise or general health. 3) Local races. Some members will be drawn to one of the activities and maybe a few to all of them. A fourth category that might develope later would be outreach to healthy life styles with a) childrens program. b) Police and Firemen. c) High school age group. d) Medical rehab program.
Police Officer Misti Mohrenne, the Community Relation Officer, explained her roll as CRO, her experience running and stair climbing and weight control. She offers to measure distances for us with her Laser guage.
She will help us with road access for races.
