Friday evening Sherri and I met at Carowinds Blvd, left her car, and headed to King, to be there to help out at the annual Feed Stokes 5K race that Zollie & Renee spearhead there to raise money for their local food banks. For the first time this year they added a half marathon to the 5k of previous races, and it was a huge, huge success. Olivia, Sherri and I started out the morning – which was cold and rainy, by far the worst weather I can remember them having for any of the races – directing traffic in a curve at the 5K, when runners would be meeting each other head on. Only one close call 
After the race & cleaning up, which went really quickly because there were so many helpers this year, we had our traditional celebratory lunch. Our crowd was a little smaller this year than in some years gone by, but it was still great fun – of course! Congratulations to Zol & Ren on, as usual, a job well done.
