The Fortuna Tierra Club sponsored the Log Hill Hustle, Fun Run and fundraiser on Saturday, September 17th. We offered two different courses; 5K and 10K for runners, walkers, and baby strollers. The courses were through the roads of Fairway Pines with a start at the mailbox kiosks for Log Hill Village and a finish at the Log Hill Volunteer Fire Department, Station #2.
At the end of the race there was a free pancake breakfast with eggs and sausage sponsored by the Log Hill Volunteer Fire Department and Fortuna Tierra Club. At Station #2, the Log Hill Volunteer Fire Department hosted an open house to celebrate their 40th anniversary.
For a first time event, the Log Hill Hustle had great participation with 79 participants mostly from Colorado but also from California, Florida, Missouri, New Jersey, and Texas. Fortuna Tierra had 50-60 volunteers from the club and the community to assist us. Dan Quigley from San Juan Runners was a great master of ceremonies and assisted us with course set-up. We had very generous sponsors. We gave out 20 bib prize drawings. We want to thank our participants, sponsors, and volunteers. We are looking forward to next year.
Fortuna Tierra's net profit for the fundraiser was close to $10,000 which will be used to provide scholarships for Ridgway High School graduates and for other educational needs.
