Recent list of events posted on the REACT yahoo group list…..

Hello Group,

I have listed below the events for 2009 for which we know will take place. It is hard to list these on the calendar at this point because we are uncertain of the actual dates and times.

I have also listed some events that are non-REACT for your information however, I have annotated the REACT sponsored events where appropriate. If anyone knows of these dates and times or becomes aware of them please drop me a line and let me know so I can put them on the calendar and keep the group informed.

As the newly elected Operations Officer I am to oversee all the events but I do not envision being the IC for each event. I will be heading up the Jan 24th SARR 25K in Bulverde and a 10 Miler run for SARR in April when several members of the team will be working the Houston to Austin MS 150. If you are not going to this particular event I may need your help on that run. More details on this event to come.

    Thanking You in Advance,
