                                      Members!

Now is a great time to join or renew your membership in LIRRC for 2017! The 2017 Application is available on this web site, and our fees (always the most reasonable on Long Island) will stay the same. Please remember......you must be a current member to enjoy the discounted race fees on Wednesday Night and to participate in club events! Your ongoing support has allowed us to plan a great 2017 Schedule, so take a moment to renew now! We also ask that if you have family members or friends who could benefit from starting a running program, please let them know about us! This year, each race in the Wednesday Night Series has a theme attached, starting with the Opening Night of the Wednesday Night Series on June 14th - Flag Day! Before and after our Wednesday Night races, starting on April 26th, our Ribbon Runs will be held in Eisenhower Park on the Golf Course side of the Park. Start time is 5:30, but you can catch up with the group if you are late! A club trip is being planned, and our 2nd Annual Picnic will be held in September! Continue to check the web site for updates on events, and check your e-mails. If you are not getting updates and newsletters, it is possible that we do not have your correct e-mail address. Drop us a line using the "Contact Us" link on the web site.......... We are always looking for volunteers for our races, and a volunteer committee will be contacting those who expressed an interest on their applications - but in the meantime, you can meet us at the race shed up to 90 minutes before any race if you want to help. We thank you in advance for your support of the Long Island Road Runners! THOSE WHO PRE-REGISTER FOR OPENING NIGHT WILL BE ELIGIBLE TO WIN A $50 GIFT CARD AT THE RAFFLE AFTER THE RACE! APPLICATIONS ARE AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.LIRRC.ORG AND MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE CLOSE OF BUSINESS ON JUNE 10TH!

Cell Phones For Soldiers

Throughout our country's history, there have been selfless people who have stepped up to answer America's call. Let us not forget our men and women in uniform, and let us always let them know they are appreciated for the sacrifices they and their families make for us. What can we do to show our support of our men and women in uniform? There are many ways, and the Long Island Road Runners Club has decided to partner with  the "Cell Phones for Soldiers" program. Each week at our races, a collection box will be available to collect old cell phones. This is a close-to-home cause, as former LIRRC President Fred Haslett's son, Sgt. 1st Class Fred "Rick" Haslett of the NC Army National Guard, was stationed in southern Baghdad, on his second deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.  Since his company's Internet connection was not free, Cell Phones For Soldiers kept SFC. Haslett and his fellow soldiers supplied with calling cards so calls home to loved ones were free.

 

Soldiers can pay as much as $5 per minute to call loved ones.  Our collection helps them stay in touch with loved ones.  Let's do our part.

 

God Bless our troops!

The story of these two youths who started this program is inspiring.
