The first "Bend Marathon" provided us an opportunity to volunteer.

Last April 26th was the first Bend Marathon. As part of our effort with the American Cancer Society and "Relay for Life", our staff volunteered to man one of the Aid Stations for the first ever Bend Marathon. The weather was clear but cold, not too bad for running, and we were all happy it didn't snow. We were stationed at the 22 mile mark. 4 miles to go, and the runners were so happy to see us. Sports drinks, water, Picky Bars, and Gummy Bears were all available for the 300 plus runners in the marathon. Can't wait until next year! |
