First and foremost, thank your to everyone who made a difference in 2005, Volunteers, Participants, Donators. It takes everyone to make it happen. When we all come together again this year, 2006 will be even greater.

I would like to welcome our new ACS Representative Louise McIntosh and our new Region. Its good to know that ACS has an office in Elmira that will be supporting us 200%. I have had the honor of meeting with Louise several times and have very high hopes.

This year we will be making allot of changes that will aid us having a more successful and profitable event.

This year our site will be directly linked to ACS's national site where we will be able to do on line registration and track our stats and be able to communicate with our teams. We hope to achieve at least a 50% paperless system this year. We will have training classes for any one that wants them. More on this soon.

This year I have included a calendar section on our site so every one can easily see what's going, where and when. I have set up a new email: michael_bathrfl@yaoo.com for every one to submit information for me to add to the website. 

Our prayers go out to all our friends and family member currently being treated for cancer to include Jeff Johnson who did so much for us last year, he is currently being treated for Brain Cancer. To all our Survivors, you are the ones who drive us the most. To all our friends and family that we have lost, you will never be forgotten.

This site will be under heavy development over the next few months, so please do come back regularly.

And please, we have some wonderful SPONSORS and they do so much for us. They support us, so please support them.

Best of luck to all, and have a great 2006   Michael Wasserman, Corporate Sponsor Chair, and Website Designer
