April 23, 2012 - To The Finish Line

Apr 23, 2012 by Marc Strode, CEO
Folks,
Well the gauntlet was laid and now it is time to pay up!  The $250 for Relay For Life has been raised which means I will match that with $500.  So congrats VVRMC on surpassing our giving amount from last year and hopefully solidify our spot as the top donor in the community.  And hey guys.  Let's not stop here.  If these messages have motivated you to give, then by all means please do!

In other RELAY news, it was a big weekend for the 8th annual Adventure Race put on by LAFB.  I'll say this....from the base to the lake by bike and on foot is a long way!  But 24 of our VVRMC folks competed across 3 of the 67 teams that participated.  So VVRMC had about 5% of the total teams, had nearly 5% of our employees participating, and all in all did quite well.  I'm happy to report that the Speedy Ducks, sponsored by our one-and-only Ducky took 30th and finished the course in just under 3 hours.  Congrats to yours truly, Dr. Osorio, Hector and Michelle from the cath lab, Falon, Adrians Larson and Vargas and Irvin (oh and also Ramon who was our driver/coordinator!) for having the best hospital time and holding bragging rights until next year!!!!!!  It was a great time and a super chance for VVRMC to represent the hospital in the community.  Thanks to all who participated.

Alright guys.  Rock on!!!!!! Town halls next 2 days.  6 sessions.  Pick one and come on and feel the noise!!!!  Will be fun and as always will have a participatory parting gift for those who come to hear what's going on at VVRMC!!!!!

Keep The Spirit,
Marc
