Reservoir Run Flyer Distribution

By Dan Gilbert

Members of our Reservoir Run Flyer Distribution Team were on the road again on Labor Day.  On a beautiful Monday morning Dave Burns, Ed Hutchins, Tom Johnson, Steve Thomas, and Dan Gilbert distributed flyers at the Faxon Law Road Race (New Haven).  According to World’s Marathons, “The half marathon and the 5K field over 6,000 runners.”

Hutch, Steve and Tom covered cars parked at the 1 Temple Street Garage.  Dan and Dave covered cars parked along the streets in the area of the New Haven Green, as well as, handing flyers to runners who had completed the 5K.  One of the cars covered was from Channel 3 Eyewitness News. 

Two of the team’s members had also volunteered at the Lachat Town Farm Pancake Breakfast the previous Sunday.  Tom Johnson and Steve Thomas along with Kiwanians Karen Chrisley, Frank Ferrara, Dan Lerner, and David McConnaughey helped flip and serve around 1,000 pancakes to just under 300 customers.  A number of Westonites may still be enjoying summer vacation, but Weston Kiwanis club members never take a break from serving our community.
