Inaugural Fundraising is Closed     Reimbursement of Marathon Fees
As many of you know, Jacksonville Galloway Members are eligible to receive reimbursement of the 2008 race registration fee if the member raised a minimum of $1,000 for the Donna Hicken Foundation. Many of you have contacted us saying that you do not want to be reimbursed, and that is great. However, we still want to live up to our commitment just as you lived up to yours.
 
If you raised $1,000 or more for the foundation this training season and would like to have your marathon or half-marathon fee refunded, please send your request to the Donna Hicken Foundation no later than Friday, April 4.

Registration for our 2008/2009 season for training is also now open. All of you are considered 'alums' to our program, and are eligible for the discounted rate. We are offering four programs again this year, and all of the details are available online at http://www.breastcancermarathon.com/run/local-training.html.

Some of you are continuing to meet and run together. I think that is wonderful, and encourage you to reach out to each other and continue your enjoyment of social long runs even as we take a little breather from the formal program.
