Club News:
Striders Marathon Dinner: On Friday, November 8th we will have our annual "Marathon" dinner at the Exchange Restaurant in Rockaway NJ. We are hoping many Striders will join us for the happy hour, dinner, and the talks about the marathons that were undertaken over this past year. The Club will be covering the brunt of the cost of the evening with a modest $15 per person charge for each person attending. The Exchange restaurant is located at 160 Main Street in Rockaway, happy hour starts at 7pm, followed by dinner and speeches. We'll wrap it up around 10pm.
If you want to talk about one of your experiences, contact Steve Austin at badknees@verizon.net to be added to the list. Check or money order should be sent to Betty Langenkamp by November 4th, her contact info is brucerun@gmail.com.
Hope to see yo all at the dinner!!
