Congrats, Leslie!

1st place winner Leslie Hammon (in the yellow) embraces 2nd place winner Vincent Bradshaw after they crossed the finish line this morning at the first MCC 5K Run/Walk organized by SGA. It was down right freezy but that didn't put a damper on the runners. SGA Pres Chris Cox started the 5K at 7 on-the-dot at the MCC Studio. It was fun to see the community participation. Young and old turned out for the event; There 73 registrants. Especially fun was seeing the kids sporting their MCC 5K t-shirts. 2 prizes were awarded to the 1st and 2nd place youth. Grand prize winner (raised the most $) was Laura Ross (Chris's very own sis), who brought in $700 alone. 3rd place went to Hyrum Williams. Way to go, girl! Looks like SGA will be getting students that outdoor dining furniture, so they can thoroughly enjoy eating out on the plaza between classes. This initial event was a success and the hope is to establish it. A big thanks to all the sponsors: Backstreet Design and Apparel, Emerald City Smoothies, Omnipure, Cafe Rio, Coral Cliffs Cinema, Southwest Nursery, Sacred Ground Healing Center, Laura's Beauty Supply and Salon, Merry Wives, Garden Gate, Barista's, St George Running Center, Ted and Allen's, Classic Sports, Road Runner Automotive, Zion Adventure Company, Holistic Massage Therapy.
