We had a great three days; we had some great runs and it was a great time for all of our girls to bond! Our parents were instrumental in pulling our trip off. Jay and Jen Cusimano helped organize and run the whole operation. Thanks to all of our parent volunteers who donated food for the runners and donated their time to get the girls to and fro Mohican. Our chaperones/chefs Roger Walker, Carl Frey, Chris Gillespie and Jay Cusiamno kept everything under control plus no one walked away hungry. Plus the girls got to meet our new assistant coach Marissa Wood who is going to be such an important part of our program this fall. What a great way to kick off the 2015 Bay Girls Cross Country Season!
