Good Morning Scott,
I just wanted to send a quick email to say thanks again to you and your guys for coming out to support our race. You guys sure made the race run more smoothly and made my job a lot easier!
I’d also like to brag about the races accomplishments, which you guys were a big part of:
We raised about $1,000 for the FSTC Children’s running program, which helps keep elementary school kids active and healthy, which in turn helps improve their school performance and their futures!
The participants also raised over $350 directly for Cary State Forest, through the sales made at the Friends of Florida State Forest table.
And finally, we donated all of the left over supplies, food, and last years shirts to JASMYN, brining the total impact of our small 125 person event up to near $2,000!
Thanks again for your help!

“We’ve all done it. Standing on our tippy toes. The dance, slowly swiveling around, alternating holding our arms up in the air and hands close to our ears. I’m talking about the weird contortions we do until we get the best signal out of our handheld radio.”
2015 Angry Tortoise Run
This past Sunday, Clay County ARES supported the Florida Striders Track Club in their annual Angry Tortoise Run held at the Cary State Forest.
We had 7 operators on site for the event. All communication was done via simplex.
Thank you to those operators who made this event possible. The event organizers were very pleased with the support that we provided and have already said they want us to assist on other events!
