Striders at the 2008 Savannah Enmark Bridge Club #229 VolumeVolume 28, 27, Number Number 1 8 www.floridastriders.com StrideRightAugustJan 20092008 Striders at the 2008 Savannah By Dave Bokros EnmarkIf you think that the Hart bridge is Bridge a challenge then you owe Run it to yourself to run the Enmark Bridge Run in Savannah, Ga. The race combines a 5k, 10k, and the infamous Double-Pump challenge. The Double-Pump combines the 5k and 10k into one long 15k that requires crossing the Talmadge Bridge over the Savannah River bridge three times. Several Striders recently made the trip to Savannah for the event. The day started early. I woke up around 5:30 am, dressed and ran down to the Civic center to see if I could pick up my race packet only to find that race packets for those running the Double-Pump are taken to Trade Center on the north side of the Savannah River. Well, back to the hotel. Shuttles run from the Civic Center on the south side of the river to the race start on the north side until 7:45 am so I had lots of free time on my hand. I found myself in the lobby waiting for the dining room to open for breakfast with a young man, 13, from Clover, South Carolina.

Therefore, I am using this plat- form to address some issues that have come to my attention. Since the cost for out-of-town memberships to our Senior Center went up in January 2020, there have been a few miscon- ceptions that have come to my attention. First and foremost, the one rumor that I would definitely like to address is the story going around that the Prospect Town Council raised the dues of our out-of-town members because they are trying to “get rid” of the non-residents that come here. The story goes that the Town Council is trying to keep our Senior Center strictly for Prospect residents only. Nothing could be further from the truth. I value the out-of-town members who come here. I feel they have contributed significantly to the growth of our Senior Center. Many of these members run programs here and volun- teer in a number of different capacities. They are my lifeline and help me in ways that I could never repay them for. I and the Town Council members would never want to “get rid” of them. I will tell you point blank why the Town Council decided to raise membership dues for out- of-town members.

    PSYCHOLOGICAL CONQUEST: PILGRIMS, INDIANS AND THE PLAGUE OF 1616-1618 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAW AI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN mSTORY MAY 2008 By Alyson J. Fink Thesis Committee: Richard C. Rath, Chairperson Marcus Daniel Margot A. Henriksen Richard L. Rapson We certify that we have read this thesis and that, in our opinion, it is satisfactory in scope and quality as a thesis for the degree of Master of Arts in History. THESIS COMMITIEE ~J;~e K~ • ii ABSTRACT In New England effects of the plague of 1616 to 1618 were felt by the Wampanoags, Massachusetts and Nausets on Cape Cod. On the other hand, the Narragansetts were not affiicted by the same plague. Thus they are a strong exemplar of how an Indian nation, not affected by disease and the psychological implications of it, reacted to settlement. This example, when contrasted with that of the Wampanoags and Massachusetts proves that one nation with no experience of death caused by disease reacted aggressively towards other nations and the Pilgrims, while nations fearful after the epidemic reacted amicably towards the Pilgrims. Therefore showing that the plague produced short-term rates of population decline which then caused significant psychological effects to develop and shape human interaction. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ............................................................................................... .iii List of Tables ...........................................................................................v

  • Galt Track Club 1946-48
    CAMBRIDGE SPORTS HALL OF FAME Galt Track Club 1946-48 Berwick Run for the Diamonds team champions 1946, 1947, 1948 Galt's formidable track club entry of Ab Morton, Scotty Rankine, Bill Memmott and Art Wilson, was perhaps the finest community distance running team in the world in the mid-to-late 1940s. The team won the team prize at the Canadian Marathon Championships in 1947, with Morton taking first, Rankine second and Memmott eighth. At the famed Berwick Run for the Diamonds, held on the American Thanksgiving in Berwick, Penn., the team comprised Rankine, Morton and Wilson in 1948, while in the two preceding years (1946, 1947) it consisted of Rankine, Morton and Memmott. In each of those years the Galt team, which was coached by Bill Martin, won the team prize over the nine-mile course. Morton was Canadian marathon champion. Rankine, who was in his prime in the 1930s, was a two-time Olympian ('32 and '36). Add Memmott and Wilson, both of whom were talented runners who trained with Morton and Rankine and could hold their own in any long distance race, and you had the makings for a remarkable team. Wilson, a young runner who came up through the ranks as Rankine's and Morton's careers were winding down, learned a lot from the veterans. And although he proved his mettle, he never achieved the individual heights that Morton and Rankine achieved, eventually leaving the sport to pursue a career. But in later life Wilson returned to running, long after Rankine and Morton retired, and became one of the top masters middle distance runners in the world, competing at masters competitions — both nation- ally and internationally — well into his 70s.

This investigation finds its roots in colonial literature and history – in the events of King Philip’s War and the texts that it produced – but moves beyond these initial points of departure to consider this archive as a laboratory for the study of the relationship between genre and knowledge on one hand, and literature and the construction of (proto-) national community on the other.

  • Another Successful Hog Jog!
    Volume 30, Number 1 Club #229 Volume 27, Number 8 January 2011 StrideRightwww.floridastriders.com August 2008 Another Successful Hog Jog! By Isabel Torres-Padin Who knew that the 1988 Hog Jog would be the family race of the year in 2010? With 482 people from both races, it was another successful Strider race. The skies were blue and the weather was a chilly 37 degrees when people arrived ready to run and have a great time. With a traditional cross country course, the 5k and 1 mile proved to be a fun, but chilly rave run. Out with the old and in with the new said the Striders when deciding shirts and awards, which resulted in new techni- cal shirts and beach towels for the first time! The logo for the Hog Jog was de- signed by the talented Trish Kabus, introducing a new, “Hog” this year. As usual the Hog Jog was held in Clay County at Ronnie Van Zant Memorial Park with a two lap course and rough terrain. Not only was the 5k a success, but also the Runt Run a free one mile fun run that both kids and parents enjoyed. Going into the race as a 6 year old in 2003 running the fun run, the Hog Jog has instilled running values and a great sense of fun that has helped me become the runner I am today. Over- all the Hog Jog had another great year, thanks to volunteers, the Florida Striders, and you- the runners!
