We wanted to give a shout out to every one of you who have helped share, sign up, donate, volunteer, or support in any capacity for StrongWILL- Run for Recovery. We had a total of 75 participants- some virtual, some couldn't make the date change, and roughly 41 or so of you that showed up today. You all were flexible, patient, and so sweet. I'm still waiting to see the final count of money but I do believe it was over $5000 raised, if not $5500 or so raised after costs. We could not do this without each and every single one of you. Thank you for spending your morning with us. I hope you continue each year, and I hope we were able to show you how we focus and support our local community. Shout out to Rich Hague for being our sponsor. Having a sponsor significantly changes the total donation, and we could not be more grateful for him. Thank you to Trenz of Smithfield for making our shirts! Thank you to the Kroger on University Blvd for donating bananas and waters. Thank you to Bojangles on Bridge Road who was able to take our order and individually wrap the biscuits. Thank you to our loyal supporters who try to come out every year! Thank you to those who donated! We had quite a few donations and I was unprepared for all the love! Thank you to our virtual runners who knew they couldn't come but signed up anyway (please feel free to tag me in pictures). Thank you to our volunteers who ran the show today! You guys are the real rockstars!! Thank you to the Police Department for your support today. Thank you to the Driver Merchants who put on the Driver Days Festival. While the rain bummed us out yesterday, today turned out to be beautiful! Great day for a charity run/walk!
