Di <br /> munky <br /> A& Nunnation <br /> P.O. Box 863 • Ripon, CA 95366 <br /> 209.599.6861 • riponhobbs@gmaii.com <br /> www.rcafsite.com <br /> Regarding: Encroachment Permit <br /> The 6th Annual Rina's Run will be held in Ripon on Saturday, May 11, 2013. It is a 5K and <br /> Half Marathon run/walk fundraiser where all proceeds are reinvested in the Ripon High <br /> Stadium Project. All staff are volunteers and we average over 100 volunteers every year. This <br /> will be our first year having a half marathon. Therefore, we can only estimate 100-150 <br /> runners. <br /> The Half Marathon starting gun will go off at lam in the Ripon High Stadium at 301 Acacia in <br /> downtown Ripon. The San Joaquin County roads' component of the course does not begin <br /> until 3 miles into the race and ends at mile 10 on the 13.1 mile course. <br /> We have received approval from the City of Ripon Police Dept. and Fire Dept. We have also <br /> submitted our permit application and fees to California State Parks for our brief entry into <br /> Caswell State Park at the turn-around of our race. <br /> This race has made it possible to demolish and replace the track and field at Ripon High <br /> School. After 5 years of fundraising, we have installed over $1 million in infrastructure to give <br /> our community a safe place to gather and compete. We are finishing Phase One of the project <br /> with proceeds from this event. (replacing all the track events that have been demolished and <br /> installing all required A.D.A. accessible fencing and sidewalks throughout Ripon High School) <br /> I apologize for being so late on this request. My calendar in November of 2013 already has an <br /> appointment set to contact you for the 2014 Rina's Run. <br /> We are still working on a traffic control plan and a letter to course homes. I will also contact <br /> our local Postmaster to make sure we are not hindering mail delivery on that morning. <br /> Thank you for your kind and quick consideration. If you have any questions at all please do <br /> not hesitate to contact me. <br /> Stephanie Hobbs <br /> 209-599-6861 <br /> www.rcafsite.com <br /> riponhobbs(agmail.com <br /> Ripon Community Athletic Foundation President <br /> Rina's Run Race Director <br />
