How to run, walk, ride or feed the Run for the Fallen

July 24, 2011
"I've had requests and inquiries about how to register to run, walk, bike, horseback ride, etc. in the Run for the Fallen event August 20," said Rhonda Vogl.

Opening ceremonies are at 7:45 a.m., at Veteran's Memorial Park in Bonners Ferry, and all you have to do to take part is show up.

Oh ... they'll all need a lot to eat, too.

While it's doubtful that there won't be sufficient food at the post-run finish line picnic, organizers would like a little assurance that their call for help is being met.

They want tables laden with all the best our community offers.

Hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, relish, slaw.

Gut-wrenching, cholesterol laden, mouth waterin g... slathered in sauce ... (sigh!) to stuff of a more healthy nature; garden fresh fruits and vegetables ... which amazingly often turn up regularly in local kitchens, and make even un-healthconscious folks say, "Hey! This is good!"

It's all welcome, needed and appreciated!

While reality, by Boundary County standards, leads most to think that organizers have nothing to worry about, organizers, realistically speaking, worry about everything.

It would be a kind gesture to send them assurance that we have their back. To be nice and do that, visit http://www.runforthefallenidaho.org.
