Planning continues for the 2024 Mum a Thon road race. We can study how other races are organized by attending local races—this Saturday, September 7th, is the BBGC Color Run. If time permits, please visit. We had a working meeting today, combing through possible sponsors for this year's run. Members chose businesses they wanted to contact. A list will be sent in a separate email - updates can be sent to Laura, who will update the list.
Please see the sponsor ask letter in the download link below.
2024 Liberty Bank Turkey Drive begins October 1 - November 18. The foundation will donate $.25 for each dollar. Funds will be collected for Zion Meals for Neighbors
