1st Annual Rhody's Run for the Troops - What a day!!
All proceeds from the race go to Pack it up, which sends care packages to our local troops currently deployed in Iraq.

Thank you to everyone who supported the 1st Annual Rhody's Run for the Troops.  It was a fantastic day with beautiful weather and a great sense of community.  Special thanks to our military families who came out to support us.  We admire your sacrifice and we appreciate all you do for us.
On a personal note, one of the highlights for us was to finally meet Capt Laurie Ludovici and her family.  Laurie fired the starting gun.  She has been our contact in Iraq since April and has been deployed in Iraq for one year.  She is home for 2 weeks of R&R and will return to Iraq for 4 more months. 

Check out pictures from race day.  

If you'd like a higher resolution copy of any picture, just email struckkm@gmail.com and I will email it to you.

Total amount of money raised for the entire day: 
$6525
This total is incredible to us.  It almost equals what we have raised for the last 11 months and ensures we will be able to send over packages for many months to come.  It also enables us to gear up for a big holiday package for the troops!!

Besides your extreme generosity, we were able to raise so much money because of our sponsors' financial support.  Please support them.
