LAR NEWS

LAR Gives Back
In our long standing tradition of giving back to the community while promoting the healthy sport of running, the board voted to donate $1000 each to: McNeese Track, Sulphur High Cross Country, St. Louis Cross Country, and Prien Lake Running Club.  LAR has supported MSU for almost 30 years through donations.  We support the other clubs because they support LAR by manning water stops and cleanup, etc at our races!

LAR Members Get a Break!
The new board voted that LAR members will have one flat fee of $10 with a $50 family max for each LAR race (Swamp Stomp, Athletes Corner 3-Miler, Contraband 5-Miler, and 4 for 4th)!  (That is, $10/LAR member per race)  T-Shirts extra.

This year only, LAR members over 65 and under 12 run the LAR races FREE!!

LAR Member Coolmax T-Shirts
LAR member t-shirts are in and in the mail.  Expect to receive them next week. 

You can purchase extra t-shirts for $6.00.  E-mail Jerry with request.

Capital Expenses
FYI, the board is looking at a few capital expenses such as new race clocks, timing software, ipod for races, logo on trailer, etc.  If you are an LAR member, let us know your thoughts on how to improve the club.

New Board
Please let Deborah Bauman, outgoing LAR president, know how much you appreciate her many years of service as a board member, treasurer, president, and race director.  Welcome our new president, Brian Fontenot.  He comes with a lot of energy and ideas to move us forward as a club.

Last year at this time, we were begging people to help with the board.  I'm proud to say that our new board is in place and doing a great job keeping the club going going.
