HolidayRFTC Entertain But when I awoke the next morning (race day) the sign was ready ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0170 and Sarah and Amv ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0171 arrived in time ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0172 to salute our captain ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0173 and start to organize numbers ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0174 for the race. Ben ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0175 and Suzanne ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0176 and Len (back) ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0177 and front ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0178 were ready as Suzanne bade us well ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0179 Amv did her Red Bull S/F ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0180 commercial twice ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0181 and so we were ready to send the first car on to the race.

We got to the first turn ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0182 and then this man ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0183 and this one ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0184 directed us to leave the car ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0185 and walk towards the grounds where we checked to make sure we qualified ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0186 and then watched as the winning time ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0187 showed that the winner had sped by ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0188 so that we could start accumulating goods from these people ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0189 while this group ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0190 handled the shirt exchange ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0191 and Sarah and Amv ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0192 covered their backs. Next we ran into the men who ran the race ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0193 and posed with their poker pal ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0194 and the team sign ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0195 and the extended team ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0196 (or at least that which was there then). Next, Adele ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0197 posed with our sign even though she was on a competing team. Then came Leslie and Laura and kids ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0198 and so it was time for a children's picture ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0199 or two ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0200 after which we ran into Louise, Bill and Willie ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0201 and then our captain and other members of our team ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0202 as these girls ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0203 gave Suzanne survivors things ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0204 and a hat ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0205 and shirt ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0206 as Judy did her signs ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0207 and our captain ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0208 led us closer to the race. We paused to salute our excellent doctors ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0209 and to eat some muffins ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0210 before Hannah ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0211 and Henry ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0212 appeared with painted faces and Michael arrived ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0213 and posed with Suzanne and Pam as DrLen ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0214 gathered team chairs. As the younger (but not youngest) generation gathered ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0215 there were many pictures to be taken ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0216 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0217 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0218 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0219 and then the Chip and Leslie ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0220 and Judy and Len ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0221 pictures before the water commercial ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0222 practice. At this point, someone decided to take my picture ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0223 before I could take Suzanne and Seva ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0224 in the final preparations for the team photo. This man ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0225 from this company ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0226 organized us and I took many pictures ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0227 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0228 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0229 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0230 before joining the picture ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0231 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0232 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0233 that this gentleman ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0234 was kind enough to take before the officials ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0235 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0236 took our official team picture after which the remaining Klockenbrinks ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0237 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0239 were photographed and Jane and Lucy ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0238 did the famous 2 hands / 1 glove pose.

Suzanne and I posed with the sign ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0240 as DrLen did a round of sign hiding poses ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0241 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0242 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0243 and the girls ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0244 posed before the Rider crowd ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0245 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0246 did its pictures. After a trip to Porta-Johnny city ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0247 and the generator ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0248 that made it all work, it was time for the race to begin. The governor ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0249 went by and ignored us. Amv tried to pose with Ben ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0250 but we couldn't get a close picture until Sarah joined ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0251 and then we start to the beginning line ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0252 where the gang was assembling ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0253 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0254 and the family Shea ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0255 appeared. We marched on ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0256 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0257 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0258 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0259 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0260 until we came to the reviewing stand where the governor ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0261 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0262 mentioned our team and so we marched on ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0263 and continued ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0264 stopping to take this inspiration from BMS ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0265 before we reached the finish ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0266 and recorded our time ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0267 and the rest of our team members ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0268 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0269 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0270 who had gone before us. While gathering, we met Ms. teen New Jersey ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0271 and wished her well at the nationals. Then, we met someone in Princeton colors and had her pose with our 2 sophomores ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0272 before heading home where Chip ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0273 had his plate full having received the food ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0274 from Olive's, while Adam ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0275 solved the problem of the beer bottle opener. Laura and Hannah ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0276 and Kathy ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0277 were eating as I made my weird gnome faces ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0278 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0279 and Judy ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0280 ate and Sarah and Michael ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0281 discussed the English language being eventually joined by Amv ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0282 as the Shea's ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0283 ate incognito and Ben ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0284 and several Klockenbrinks ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0285 watched the football game ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0286 while the teenagers ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0287 ate on both sides of their table ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0288 and remained amused by the matzah ball ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0289 as I admired their clean plates ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0290 and Jane ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0291 considered getting a rest but there was no escaping the discussion ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0292 ../../../Sabbat/2003/10.18-19.03RaceForTheCure//IMG_0293 about fees at Nassau Swim Club.
