Happy Friday!
First of all thank you to all our volunteers that came to help with our WARRIOR DASH today! We had been watching the weather all week and unfortunately it did not go as predicted yesterday morning when we made the decision to move forward with it.
However, today the rain came and we had to cancel the K-2 portion. We will make it up next Thursday October 18th. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Once we are able to give you specific times we will send that out in another email.
Thank you again volunteers!
