BSWD Fun Run – Lindley Park
Hi all,
THIS WEEK’S FUN RUN STARTS AT 6:00 PM and will be at Lindley Park. We will start at the Pavilion. We’ll have a 1, 3, and 5 mile course. Only two more runs then our annual meeting! We’ve got some great participation awards this year that we’ll give out at the annual meeting and you need to run 10 times and time 2 to qualify.
Thanks to James Childre our newsletter editor and Tomas Dumbrovsky for getting our newsletter out. To read it on line go to:

We only have about 5 spots left in the John Colter Run and I expect it to fill up tonight! These rainy days really get the folks on their computers signing up for our runs! We have had 41 people sign up in the last week! It’s going to be a great run!
And it looks like it’s going to be a great winter as well! I did a run yesterday from Bridger Bowl to the M and found this Wooly Bear Caterpillar between the north and south summit of Saddle Peak. There was an eight year study done in 1948 by Dr. C. H. Curan of the American Museum of Natural History to determine a correlation to the length of brown band to the coming winter.
He studied thousands of worms and concluded that the smaller the band, the harsher the winter. Of course, consider this worm was at an elevation of over 9000 feet so his perspective could be a bit skewed. Even so, I’m hoping for lots of snow.
See you Wednesday at Lindley Park at 6:00 PM!
