Please read the following comments below from Barb Rinne (leader of the relay exchange volunteers) and Chuck Manthey - volunteer coordinator for the entire Marathon. This is the first time a high school cross country team has volunteered and our girls did such a great job, the race coordinators are already asking me when we have a free Saturday next year! As ALWAYS, our Park Hill South runners represented us well and made a great impression. We all know how great these girls are but it is nice to receive accolades from outside of our district! WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU AND PROUD TO BE YOUR COACHES!!!!
"I would like to thank the Park Hill South Cross Country girls for their help at the first relay exchange zone. They showed up with enthusiasm, excitement, and were asking what they could do. They were key in getting set-up, identifying relay runners in advance, and ensuring the exchange. This exchange zone saw all half marathoners and marathoners going by, so it was very important to have so much help. They cheered loudly for the runners and brought a lot of energy to our duties. We couldn't have done it without them!" - Barb
"Yes, many thanks to your Team, Pam. I have not put together a proper 'thank you' to everyone yet. However, I heard from many others that your young ladies did an absolutely great job Saturday morning. As our relay event grows there will continued pressure on the first exchange volunteers to handle increasing volume of runners/activities in the same short period of time. Pam, please thank each one of them for us. I would like to know what they thought of the event and your thoughts as well. Our event would not grow or become the success it has without dedicated runners giving up or sacrificing their running for one Saturday so many others can run in the Half, Full or Relay. Yes, we are always looking for volunteers, but volunteers with running experience is PRICELESS." - Chuck
Volunteers at the marathon were: Kyla and Miranda Henderson, Rachael and Miranda Norfleet, Lauren Kuhn, Evan, Amy and Dana Willsey, Kierstie Bischoff, Jane Jackson, Jessica Waddle, Abby Werner, Maggi Wolfe and Natalie Clifford.
