RDG’s Self Sustaining Goal
In the article from the other day, one of the team goals was to become self-sustaining. That’s not an easy thing to become when you’re a group of runners, doing this for fun, but with a purpose. We’re not a Non-Profit who can go out there, organize, and bring in donations that benefit us directly.Continue reading “RDG’s Self Sustaining Goal”

Ragnar Trail Michigan Officially Postponed
It’s with a good bit of disappointment that we officially announce that Ragnar Trail Michigan has officially been postponed.

One Week To Go!!!!
It has been a CRAZY month to say the least but we are 1 week away from finishing our kick-off Matching opportunity. Things have slowed down a good bit as people are trying to find their footing with the Coronavirus but there’s something I can’t stress enough, non-profits aren’t taking time off right now. NeighborLinkContinue reading “One Week To Go!!!!”
