The community counseling session offered by TMC will take place after MMM at Hotel Congress. Please inquire for details when you check in.

Dear MMM Athletes

Our hearts ache from Saturday’s horrible shooting – we know your hearts are broken too.

Let’s come together for an evening of healing.

Please join us for the regularly scheduled Meet Me at Maynard’s this Monday.  Our hope is that running and walking together, with an added purpose of demonstrating our support for those who have lost so much in this terrible tragedy, will allow us to heal…and perhaps to think about what each of us can do to make our community a healthier community.

Bring candles, bring lights, bring friends and family.  Let’s just be together…to run, walk, or simply stand and talk.

Maynards and MMM will provide ribbons for us to wear. Pick up yours at the check-in table. As other plans evolve for the evening, we will put them on the website. We advise that you check it before you come.

After our gathering TMC is offering a special team of experts who will provide a community debriefing about the incident and how we can all cope with this tragedy. Hotel Congress has graciously provided space in the hotel for this session. Details will be on our website late tonight or tomorrow morning.

Forward this to as many people as you can…ask them to join us.

We expect more than the usual MMM crowd, so come early to prevent stress over parking. Remember, the Pennington St. Garage charges only a $2 flat rate after 5:00.

With respect,
MMM Board and SAR
