Sunday afternoon may have been dreary outside, but inside the party room at MJ’s in Bayville, the atmosphere was anything but gloomy. The space was buzzing with energy as fellow runners and friends gathered to celebrate, all while enjoying the stunning view of Barnegat Bay. Guests were treated to a delicious meal—and let’s not forget that amazing cake! It was a sweet highlight of the afternoon. Our award winners were all smiles as they were recognized for their dedication and accomplishments over the past year, and it was heartening to welcome so many new faces to the club. A huge thank-you goes out to everyone who contributed prizes to our raffle table. The variety of gifts was fantastic, the raffle process went smoothly, and thanks to your generosity, the club saw a successful outcome from the event.
