December 2017 - The RUNDOWN President’s Corner
The RUNDOWN - September 2017
Hello Striders:
Happy Holiday Season!! I know it’s been a few months since there’s been an edition of my column, but as you’re aware, our entire Strider communication outreach has been “under construction” recently. To bring you up to date, Ada Lester stepped down as our Rundown editor after having done a great job for our club for many years; I truly appreciate all of the hard work that Ada has put into making the Striders and the Rundown the best of the best. We also now have a void in our web management as longtime webmaster Steve Speirs has stepped down as well. Steve, just like Ada, has done a fantastic job managing our website and I’m very grateful for everything Steve has done for so many years. We are now in the process of determining the best way to move forward in all aspects of communication, be it social media, newsletter or website. We hired a consultant who is handling these tasks for us now as we figure out the best way to move forward; we’ll certainly keep you all informed. Speaking of folks who are leaving positions within the Striders, I want to thank our 3 out-going Board members – Vice President Tom Randolph, Treasurer Dan Edwards and Board member Jennifer Cowell. They have donated so much time and energy to the Tidewater Striders and all three will be sorely missed. Tom had the forward thinking idea of a Hampton Roads Super Grand Prix among the 3 running clubs in our area and single handedly scored all of the races for Super Grand Prix points as well as managing its website and was a confidant that I could always turn to. Dan, was not only our Treasurer for many years, but was also the co-Race Committee chair for many years and gave thousands of hours of volunteer service to a club he cared very deeply about. Jennifer was very involved with our New Energy program, volunteering as a coach at the Mt. Trashmore site, and was always willing to volunteer at the finish line for countless races. I will miss you all, but I also know that you will still be around volunteering for any number of chores and for that I say THANKS!
