  • Update on All Comers income was stated in the September minutes at $2,500 however the final amount is actually $996.00, it’s never been about the money.

Northwest Runner Report: Martin Rudow

  • We received $201.00 for the month. Although a small amount this month, Northwest Runner remains ahead of projected revenue
