First I should probably mention: vote, vote, VOTE, VOTE!!!
And go ahead and vote LaRose, while you are out there! We need a local guy who has proven his drive, his desire to serve and his ability to handle variable situations on our side! Summit County is due for some fresh blood! This is the guy for the j-o-b!
Now, onto other matters.
It is not too early to consider your holiday plans, I am quickly learning.
As you pine over where to devour turkey this year, consider starting a new family tradition.
...consider doing something that will make you feel FANTASTIC as you start your Thanksgiving Day...
...consider doing something that will extend a helping hand to the less fortunate of THIS area (A-K, Baybae!)
... consider joining us for the Home Run for the Homeless!
Proceeds go directly towards an all-volunteer, nonprofit housing and soup kitchen in the heart of Akron, Gennesart. (I know it looks tricky to pronounce. Go with gen-es-ar-et).
If supporting the less fortunate of Akron is not something that gets your juices pumping, how about this???
The event is not just a money sponge. There is actually some fantastic fun available for all members of the family.
If you want to take the chill route (no seasonal pun intended), sign up for the 1 mile Fun Run/Walk.
OR if you are feeling tough (or just ran the Road Runner and need a little autumn incentive to keep on the running habit) take on the incredible 4 Mile Run! This joggeroo is amazing!
It takes you through the historic Glendale Cemetery, just down from Cadillac hill. The hilly, windy, course is captivating when the morning sunshine slips through the trees and catches your chilly cheeks!!!! The course was set up in conjunction with Olympian Butch Reynolds, who actually shows up each Thanksgiving for a little group stretch and encouragement. AWESOME!
Pencil this in as your morning activity and you will not feel bad about the extra helping of pumpkin pie, for sure!
Still need some inspiration? There are prizes awarded for each age bracket and overall race winner.
Jump on the registration and you may even make the "first 1,200 pre-registered 4-mile runner" Free Giveaway!

...I can hear the pitter-patter of running feet now
Jog well and offer a bit of support to our neighbors, Rubber City-ers!
