Hello Roswell Relay Volunteers!
I can't thank you all enough for the time and effort this past Saturday at the Rotary Relays.
Becky and the coaches had everything planned perfectly and the weather cooperated! We had over 1,000 high school athletes from 25 schools participate. The fantastic food from our sponsors and tireless work of Mindy and the hospitality crew kept everyone fed. Our 55 Rotarian and Interact volunteers made sure that things kept moving smoothly throughout the day.
I repeatedly heard how much it means to the coaches and bus drivers to receive such great hospitality and have organized volunteers - this is truly a standout Roswell Rotary event.
Great work everyone! and to those of you who have not been a part of Roswell Relays before, jump on in! I promise, it is one of the most fun projects of the year!
