Hi Matt! I'm glad you stopped by!
CONGRATS on your new post over at Maryland Rock Raiders!!! I pray those "pains" turn into successes. I bet it's not easy to take over an already established club. Keep up the good work and it should fall into place.
Don't be discouraged if people leave....people come and go....but you never know who will turn up and be a huge part of your success. We know it first hand. Just keep your goal in front of you and do not waiver from what is right....and you will be very successful!
We were lucky, as we started somewhat from scratch and had people with us that believed in what we were doing from the first idea. We will help you out in any way possible, though...and I would LOVE for both out clubs to have a joint ride. I have met several MRRs and it'd be nice to hang on the trails with you guys.
PLUS, if you are doing an other ADA RUN this september, we are ALL OVER it this year. It's something we care very much about and kinda screwed up the plans to attend the last 2 years. We won't miss it this year!
So...good luck and you knw where to find me or Chris if you need anything.
