Exciting News!

Bryan Jones and his team at Cranford Johnson Robinson Woods were so kind to set up a social network just for us. I’m sure all of you are at least aware of Facebook (if not completely immersed in it) and probably plenty of other networks out there. Well, Komen Captains is the facebook for all of you (along with us) to be friends.


We would like to keep this as a small group (relatively speaking) to include our team captains and co-captains, so please do NOT invite your whole team to join.

Komen Captains has several features that I think you are really going to enjoy. You can share your stories, comments and ideas with other team captains. New captains can learn from seasoned captains and seasoned captains can learn from new captains. You can share your photos and videos. You can blog. You can read others’ blog posts and see their photos and videos. You can, hopefully, get ideas from others’ projects that have worked and learn from those that didn’t.

I am especially excited about the Forums. I have wanted to set up a message board where all of you could talk to each other, answer questions and share experiences. Forums is my answer. I have set up categories pertaining to different areas of the Race season with a General Chat in case I’ve missed an area. Others may be added as we go.

When starting a discussion, please check to see whether there is already a discussion underway regarding your topic, put it under the category that best fits your topic and create an appropriate Discussion Title. After all, we don’t need all of the discussions under Three Miles of Men to be titled Three Miles of Men. Be a bit more specific. And please play nice.

Moderators will be following along to help and assist where needed. We will also close or delete any discussions we deem inappropriate. There is a Moderator category where each moderator will tell you a little about themselves. If you wish to get in touch with one of us, please feel free to email us.

Have I totally lost you by now? I’m sure all of you just want to know how to join. As this is a private network, you can only join by invitation. Email me your name, team or company, and the email address you want to use at ar.rftc.teams3@gmail.com. PLEASE also use your name for the Subject of the email. (That helps me.) We will then send you an invitation. Please be patient as we may be flooded with requests here at the beginning.

Once you join, the web address for Komen Captains is www.komencaptains.com.

And, in case you are wondering, the blog will continue.
