1) Summer Steamer Update — Race day is July 11th. Anyone interested in volunteering should contact Ray Charbonneau. The IT Band is expected to play, and there will be plenty of beer. Please sign up on-line or grab an application.
2) 24 Hour — Race Directors Kate and Tim Maul were at the meeting. The 24 Hour Relay is a race around Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield. People can sign up as a team, run a marathon (around and around the lake we go), or do an ultra-marathon. Volunteers are needed!!! Please contact Kate, Tim or Gretchen if you can help.
3) SRR T-Shirts — There was a lengthy and heated discussion regarding potential color issues. Should the T-shirts be ordered in white, or black. After Jim Sullivan, aka Sully, narrowly missed getting his nose twisted off, it was decided that black T-shirts were cooler and the presidente will order 60.
4) Aurelio Polci Memorial Run — In honor of a member of SRR who passed away, we do a run and try to raise a little money to help out his widow and the children. Jessica Zall will be the director of this fundraiser, which will be on July 1. If you would like to help out that day, please contact Jessica.
5) Race of the Month
6) Long Runs — Steve Pepe has been hosting a Sunday morning run out of Fitness First in Arlington and will continue to do. We are still encouraging individuals to host long runs and hope to get this info updated regularly on the website. Alison will discuss with Dan Smith and Joe O'Leary.
7) Gobble, Gobble, Gobble Update — No news. (Is good news?)
