Hello All!

As a result of doing the Devils Gulch AS, Evergreen Trail Runs will be making a $1000 donation to us.  Brandon and I think it would be a great opportunity to use the money to start a scholarship or benefit fund for local runners in need. 

It’d be easy to immediately open up a separate Money Market account to house this fund for now, and in our next meeting we could decide as a group the who, when, and why criteria we could use to award the funds to individuals in the future. Also decide what percentage of profits go to the fund for each run we host.

Thoughts?

I think that’s a great idea. Thank you!
