Once again, Labor Day has come and gone and I'm proud to report that we had an awesome day for Tour de Moore. The weather couldn't have been any better, our volunteers were stellar, we had no medical emergencies and as far as I know, everyone had a great time out there.
Habitat for Humanity provided all the volunteers for the SAG stops and boy did they do a great job. I got so many compliments from the cyclists about their enthusiasm. Additionally, I think we were right on the money as far as refreshments. We had enough with very little left-overs. The cool thing is that we were able to donate left-over fruit to the local soup kitchen and to MANNA! We are glad to support our community.
Let me also give a big commendation to the Sly Fox, who catered our lunch. From start to finish, the food was fresh and delicious. More than one person commented on how much they enjoyed their lunch.
All in all, it was wildly successful day for cycling in the Sandhills. I don't think we had a record crowd, but it was close.
Thanks to all the volunteers, including my close personal friends, without whose help, I would not have been able to pull of such a spectacular event. Thanks to all the local and out-of-town cyclists who came to tour our lovely county and who make doing this every year, worthwhile.
A special thanks to Amanda Jakl and Judie Wiggins from Habitat, whose tireless efforts for many months came to fruition yesterday in a first-class event!
