*ROTM Run of the month has been very successful in the past so its back for people that want to go on runs but need to plan in advance. We will be looking for volunteers each month for the ROTM (run of the month). Its your run and includes anywhere you want, any day in the month, overnight, night run, even a scenic dirt road drive. Again its your run and your chance to get involved and meet new members.

Way to go Wilma!

Do you have an idea of where you will hold your run at?

 

[Wilma83]

I'm debating, want to see how hot it's going to get here but either Redfield canyon or rug road to Arivaipa. Probably be an overnight either way! I'm open to suggestions as well.

Jackson great write up and photos. Nice to see the new members coming to the meeting. It would be nice to see more of our members wearing there CSC swag to the meetings as well as when we do our run. So the challenge for the next meet is to wear your CSC swag to the next meet and next ROTM.
