Schreck, George
Actually, I think the idea of sending letters thanking people is a good one.
Sometimes in dealing with these issues, all it takes is an acknowledgement
of the minor inconvenience and some thanks. It may Laos embarrass (though I
doubt it) the person who caused the problem. Other than briefly mentioning
the gravel and the tacks, I would go easy on the issue, as someone
suggested, we do not want to encourage others to follow suit. Perhaps we do
not even want to mention it at all in what is supposed to be a thank you
letter.

As one of the three people who spent 2 hours Saturday evening
sweeping the
road, I can assure you that there was no gravel whatsoever on
the road.
Odds are good that it's some proto-adolescent. The same sort of
twerp who will flip you off from the safety of the back seat of
daddy's Suburban. Rather than trying to start a confrontation, I
would suggest that sending a form letter to every house on Dairy Creek
Road thanking them for their patience and cooperation would be a good
move. In that letter, some statement about "... outside of someone
tossing shovelfuls of gravel onto the course, the race went smoothly ..."
and ask that anyone having information about this reckless endangerment
contact OBRA might get the point across.
