Then the race came and the kite ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150700 gave us a sense of how we might stretch cords to decorate ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150701 and to symbolize the finish lines ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150702 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150703 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150704 as the courses were created ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150705 and the M&M's were served ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150706 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150707 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150708 and yet another finish line was drawn ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150709 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150710 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150711 even as the bowl for checks was placed ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150712 the candies were out ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150713 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150714 and Ben cleaned the outside table ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150715 as Suzanne organized inside ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150716 and Ben showed the signs of his hard work ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150717 as he moved on to his second table. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150718 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150719 The chips of various sorts ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150720 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150721 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150722 and dips ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150723 and candles were out ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150724 so we trekked to Hoagie Haven ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150725 where the 6 foot hoagies were loaded into the car ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150726 along with the condiments ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150727 and we arrived home to see that the first racers -- Sharon and Kristen -- had arrived. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150728 As Ed brought in a hoagie ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150729 we organized the table for all the hoagies ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150730 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150731 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150732 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150733 including the spare one in the kitchen ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150734 and then the cutting began ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150735 as Jeff arrived ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150736 and Suzanne, Sharon and Kristen ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150737 primed Kristen to pose ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150738 and then posed as a group ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150739 before Maxine and Nancy ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150740 and John arrived ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150741 and Sarah and Ed settled in. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150742 Next came Carole Messersmith ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150743 and Stephen and Lizzie ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150744 followed by Pete and Lisa ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150745 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150746 Sheryl ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150747 Paul and Carol ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150748 and Will ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150749 as Jane, John and Ben stood by the door ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150750 and the Fuchs came with their dog ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150751 as Ira posed ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150752 and then the Marshes arrived ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150753 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150754 followed by the neighbors ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150755 and some friends of Jane ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150756 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150757 and then the Straus family women ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150758 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150759 and Alan ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150760 though Joel escaped to the backyard football game ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150761 so they needed to borrow Sarah for their family picture ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150762 as Seva arrived ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150763 followed by Michelle and Steven. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150764

All of this activity made it clear that people needed to assemble ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150765 for the group picture ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150766 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150767 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150768 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150769 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150770 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150771 but after many tries, it was clear that people had to reassemble ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150772 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150773 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150774 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150775 in the other direction for a group photo with better light ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150776 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150777 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150778 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150779 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150780 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150781 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150782 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150783 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150784 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150785 and so the walk began and along the way we ran into the rest of the Marsh family ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150786 ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150787 and back at home were Doris Shea ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150788 Cindy George ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150789 Claire Mulvey ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150790 who also posed with Sarah and Ed ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150791 John Shea ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150792 and Emily Shea ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150793 and then when the crowds left, Jamie ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150794 and Jon Huang appeared. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150795 After recording one more year's sign, we saluted team Suzanne and felt good about the funds that we raised. ../../../Sabbat/2007/10.13-14.07RaceForTheCure//P1150796
