Sorry for the slow response time, but I do have some tremendous news for the RMEC. Our club won the Best Rookie Team award for 2009; but that's not all. The RMEC also won the South Atlantic Division All Star Team award! Please note that is not just Nash County relay teams; this is the entire South Atlantic Division. We accomplished this award by raising the most dollars per team member. All members worked hard and really put on a great showing for the RMEC. As Team Captain for 2009, I thank all members and supporters. THIS IS REALLY SOMETHING FOR RMEC TO BE PROUD OF!
The Committee Chairs also awarded Brian Lankford with the Purple Pillow award for his amazing performance and his touching motivation. Many thanks to Brian and his "ultra-trainer"/partner Frank.
Totally Awesome! Thanks, Eric--for heading up our relay team.
ReplyDeleteGreat job, everyone!
ReplyDeleteI hope we do this again, for the 2010 Relay for Life.
Great job to the RMEC folks who were part of the Relay for Life!!! I truly hope we,as a family, can participte in this for 2010!!! Congrats.....hope we can have a big showing again this year....any more 50 mile folks????
ReplyDeletePossibly so, Patti .....
ReplyDeleteI won't sign my name, so no one holds me to that. LOL
We really do need a captain for this team in 2010. The RMEC is becoming more than just a running club, and this is one example of that. These are the major things we do:
ReplyDelete* Fun Run for Charities Participant
* RMEK - Kids Training Program
* Relay for Life Team
* Ford's Colony Race Host
* Medoc Race Host
I really would like to see us continue our participation in the relay, but Eric does not have time to serve in his position on the committee, and also to be our coach. This is a great chance for one of our 50 members to step up and do something wonderful for the community.
