Thank You From Christopher Wallgren
Over the past year many of you have sent mail and non-perishables over to Christopher Wallgren- stationed in Afghanistan for the last year. Chris is the son of club member Deb Wallgren.
From Chris:
To the members of the North Medford Running Club,
Thank you all for the great support during the past year. Whether prayers, cards, or care packages, you all played a part and on behalf of my 35 man platoon, thank you. Many of the Soldiers helped me make the care packages disappear within minutes of opening them. You have no idea how much it means to young Soldiers and myself to get back at the end of a busy day or week, and have a stack of mail waiting to be opened. I truly appreciate everything you have done for us over the past year.
V/R,
Chris Wallgren
