Marklund Visit a Huge Hit!

The team spent two hours with the clients of Marklund Home in Geneva, getting to tour the facility and play soccer, baseball, and even take a few on nature walks. While we were there, we also had the chance to see the glider/swing that was purchased with the many years of donations that the teams had made to Marklund.  This is a rewarding experience for the clients, because they love the TLC.  It was equally rewarding for our runners, because few have ever had the opportunity to experience giving the gift of time, in this way.  Thank you, runners, for being terrific role models, and for lending a hand to the Marklund Community.

The Marklund Home will host it's first ever 5K on Sunday, October 27th.  We'd like to send some of our runners back to help out with the event. Please let Coach Clarey know if you are interested.
