River Bank 2009

This is part of our group that represented YFC on Saturday at the annual River Bank Run in downtown Grand Rapids. This event hosted over 17,500 participants. It's so much fun to be a part of such a huge event. I'm especially proud of Scott who ran the 10K. His time was 54 minutes. Way to go!

Another highlight was the mother/daughter team...Kate and Carol! Mom, wanna do the 25K next year?

Our group may not have been huge but in the end we hope to have raised about $3000 in pledge money for the ministries of Youth for Christ.

Thanks everyone who participated and supported this event. There are 4 people missing from the picture. We are proud of you too (Sharon, Kelly, Joan, and Dann)!

Is it me, or is Scotty making eyes at me? I think he likes me.

It was a lot of fun! Thanks for organizing it!

He is making eyes at you Matt. I think he was hoping you wouldn't notice but I caught it on camera.

The 25K - are you kidding me. Maybe - and I mean maybe the 10K again only on a sunny warmer day. Thanks for all the work you and Kate did to make it happen for all of us. Carol

Yes, Matt. I just couldn't resist.

I don't blame you Scott (and I'm used to it). I would check me out too.
