All running/ <br /> walking events are on the same day-October 1,2016. The course will be set up on <br /> Thursday and Friday September 29th & 30th. This is the same course as the annual <br /> Centerville Festival of the Lakes runs. <br /> • This is a fund raising event for No One Left Hungry Foundation. Marsha Marcussen is <br /> the founder and principle operating officer. She has established strategic relationship <br /> with and works in cooperation with Stepping Stone Emergency Housing in Anoka and <br /> Gospel Mission in St. Paul. <br /> • This event in 2015 raised approximately$3000. The money was used to provide shoes <br /> and warm clothing to the homeless and to support homeless shelters in St Paul and <br /> Anoka. <br /> • The event benefits the homeless in Minnesota. People in need from rural and suburban <br /> areas tend to migrate to the larger cities. It is the intention of the event organizer to per- <br /> sonally take the benefits to those in need where ever they are in our State. Thus the <br /> statement of purpose is to benefit the homeless in Minnesota rather than Anoka or <br /> Ramsey Counties. <br /> • The race committee members are all volunteers. One hundred percent of the funds <br /> raised, in excess of expenses,will go directly to benefit the homeless. <br /> • We are requesting a waiver to all park fees and deposits. <br /> New Application: This is a new application for 2016 <br /> CONTACT PERSON: Patrick Branch <br /> Page 1 of 14 <br /> 58 <br />
