This year I am attempting the other side of the sport by joining the board of directors for the New England Mile. We had a meeting today to discuss how the planning is going, and we seem to be ahead of last year’s schedule. We are still looking for sponsors, but we have all of our prizes donated and have begun to create donation that will be going to Easter Seals at the conclusion of the race. We have our race flyers printed up, and I have a stack of about 250 of them waiting to be handed out to various local businesses in an attempt to drive registrations our way. This should be a fun experience.
That sounds like fun. Easter Seals is a charity for children, isn’t it? (I’ve never seen it here, but it could well operate under a different name).
Easter Seals helps children learn to cope with disabilities and trains their parents on how to properly take care of the children.
