Hi everybody

There is a new twist to our race... Our local ABC affliliate has COATS FOR KIDS drive everyyear at this time I have contacted them and we will use our event as a kick off for the drive... Basically what happens the station and the local Swansons cleaners collect coats until christmas and then with the Salvation Army distribute the coats to the needy kids who have no coats to keep them warm during our cold season which starts in January thru March ...Basically what I am asking everyone contestants and spectators bring a coat to the event (old or new) and they will be collected and sent to the cleaners and keep some kids warm this year ...

Thanks ahead of time
