Lead the Way 5K update

 The much anticipated Lead the Way 5K  / 10K Run continues to make progress. Marty Whitcomb and Joe Rangitsch met with the action officer from the newly acquired Clay National Guard Center ( AKA NAS Atlanta) and the Commander of Dobbins AFRB to sort throught the variuos requiremenst to hold the ruin on the complex.

Various routes were reconn'ed as well as receiving an explanation of the various directorates who will need to give their OK before we can start execution.

We remain very optimistic that we WILL have a run on the runway at NAS / DOBBINS - it is simply a matter of progressing through the bureaucracy to get the different approvals. We are still walking through the different organizations, requirements, varying rules and directions to be able to hold this run.

Because of this, we are being realistic and UNCOUPLING the run from any SPECIFIC date at this time, but we are still looking at the Mid November - Decemberl time frame.

Before you go shooting the messenger - remember that the intent of this event is to reach out to the community at large, not just the West Point / Service Academy family.

This event has the potential to be a MAJOR community event and we do NOT want to be short sighted.

 Stay tuned for more updates. 

 We are still looking for energetic folks to get involved. If you are interested in being involved, email Joe at
