Hello Delco RRC |
"Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude." - Ralph Marston
With this quote in mind: Let us help you with your attitude. Who doesn't need a tune-up every now and then. Come out to a Fun Run, we have excellent attitude adjusters on hand. |
Swarthmore Fun Run - Wednesday |
34 runners and walkers were out last night for the Swarthmore Fun Run. It was a very nice night for a run. 22 people came out to Swarthmore Pizza afterward for good food, laughs and chit chat. Come on out and join in the fun. All abilities are welcome. |
