RUNNERS HIGH THANK YOU

The seats were full and thanks to volunteer Charles Mince the freshly popped popcorn was plentiful and a big hit!

It is too soon to tell if we made our fundraising target from last week’s screening of “Runners High”, but I wanted to send a note to SRO Staff, Volunteers and Supporters for making our first fundraising event this year a big success!

Your collective efforts to sell tickets and promote the event created great buzz and word of mouth. We had a packed auditorium; supporters came out even in the midst of the storms.

While there are too many individuals to acknowledge, I would like to specifically thank the fundraising committee:

 Charles Mance for the event logistics
 Howard Nathal for his efforts in securing raffle items
 Katharine Sullivan for acquiring the venue
 Jerry Wolfe, who I think actually moonlighted as a principal for OUSD, but must have really been a salesperson for his tremendous energy in ticket sales.

Special acknowledgement and thanks also goes to Samuel Merritt University for the use of their auditorium and equipment.

With our record number of students this late into the season and the downturn in the economy, we have a considerable monetary gap to solve this year. Last week’s screening was an important endeavor to help us get across the finish line again this year.
