GNBTC donated $1,500 to The Women's Center thanks to Hazelwood Women's 5K volunteers and participants!
In June, members of the Hazelwood Race Committee presented $1,500 to The Women's Center at the Center's Board of Directors meeting - the largest donation in recent years. The Women's Center expressed its gratitude for the GNBTC's long-standing efforts to host a fundraising event on The Women's Center's behalf. Thank you to all those who helped the GNBTC host a successful event.

Thank You !!!

Day of Portugal GNBTC Prizes
At the May Monthly meeting the club voted to again offer prizes to whoever wears a club jersey and lists GNBTC as their team. To be eligible all you have to do is be a current member, wear a club singlet or tee shirt for the race, list GNBTC as your team or running club, and send in a picture of you wearing it at the race. You can get singlets from Donald Dayton. We will draw three random names from those who send in photos at the next monthly meeting. Email your photos to Freddy at gnbtcnews@gmail.com.   You must have the word "photo" and the race you are entering in the subject header of the email. The plan is to hold more random drawings for each GNBTC Grand Prix Race, everyone has a great chance of winning these!
