5a. Other: Mt. Washington Road Race:
- Ron Paquette explained the CMS involvement with the Mt Washington Road Race. (He has a letter that he received from the race directors.) Ron will contact Alicia with details on how members can sign up as part of the CMS team, as individuals, and as volunteers. We are asked to provide at least 5 volunteers for the race.
- Gines Satchi gave a Snow Shuffle 5K report. Fortunately the weather cooperated and there was enough snow for the event. This year's date conflicted with a few other running/snowshoeing events.
