Congratulations to all of the "Team Killington" members who participated in the VT-NH Race for the Cure to raise money for the Susan G Komen foundation this past weekend. Special thanks go out to team organizers Dick and Noel Gluck. For the last 10 years, Dick and Noel have been gathering their family and friends together each July to help raise money to fight breast cancer. Late Sunday afternoon, after the "race", team members joined Dick and Noel at their home for a post race barbeque. This year, Team Killington had over 100 members and raised close to $10K to support the Komen Foundation.

Mary and I are happy that we have been able to support Dick and Noel's effort for Team Killington over the years. Once again this year, we donated the proceeds from a special "Team Killington Brunch" to the effort. This years contribution, made possible by all those who attended the brunch at the end of June, came to $869.68

Around town, Killington is slowly drying out from last weeks heavy rains. I did have a chance to visit Green Mountain National Golf Course yesterday for a round of golf with some friends. The course was pretty soft from all the rain (read no run). But everything surely is green and lush! Until the next post, keep it in the fairway... and don't forget your sunscreen.
