Thanks for Cedar 12k Help

Once Again the members of Bastion Running Club and members of ROC came out in full force to help put on another great race.

I would like to thank Jennifer Frost, Ross Palfry. Steve Middleton and Steve Gagliano for their special help.

Thanks Robin Dutton from Arrowsmith Bikes for the lead bikers. Also Arrowsmith bikes is the newest sponsor on our finish sign Thanks Robin.

I think the biggest thanks has to go out to Pat Ross for his great work. Pat lead out the runners by bike than a quick change and he than did a great job as our MC. It was my goal to get the awards done in a very timely manner and thanks again to Pat for his great work.

The Club got a lot of thanks from a number of folks from other clubs in regards to the great food and how fast the awards went.

Thanks All
Darrell

Dear Bastion,

A great big thanks to all the members who made today's Cedar 12 K race absolutely fabulous by volunteering, running and cheering. The weather was perfect and the traffic was on the whole, very patient with us. My registration crew, the parking crew, the marshals and the finish line crew handled everything seamlessly. 413 runners participated and Bastion members did very well winning 3 firsts and a number of top ten finishes. We also had the largest number of lead cyclists the Island Series has ever seen. Darrell Orosz ran the show with an iron fist and with the help of Pat Ross, the awards were done in record time. Jennifer Frost budgeted how much food we needed perfectly and there was nothing but raves about the waffles with strawberries and whipped cream and the porridge from the runners. Also, thanks to John Hodson for taking some great pictures of the race. I'm sure nobody but a few know how hard Darrell works on the race but I can assure you the race would be a shambles without him. Now, I have to count a lot of money.

Thanks,
Ross
