The Awards Banquet and Election of Officers will be held at the DuPont Country Club on February 28.
The board raised the price for members to $30, which is still a bargain, considering the venue. Non-members may attend for a price of $40.
The guest speaker will be Val Whiting, former professional basketball player and a trainer who operates GAMESHAPE, a personal training service as well as Delaware Boot Camp, described as a complete fitness program. She nows contributes articles to the News-Journal and recently wrote about how training to run a marathon changed her outlook on athletes.

Just a reminder that it is not uncommon that I miss results that the club might want t know about. While the days are past when the club posts the result of every club member in every 5K, I am glad to post any outstanding achievement you think is important, such as a personal best, a long streak, or any half-marathon or beyond result. Simply email mccorq@comcast.net with your information.
