Raise a Cheer with Team Henrico's Spirit Team
by Liz Stovall
We have an exciting destination on the
County’s HealthTrip coming up in April,
and there is something for everyone on
this trip! If you are not running/walking
in the Monument Avenue 10K this year,
put on your best red, white, and blue,
and cheer for our Team Henrico runners
on Saturday, April 9. The County is
having a Spirit Team of coworkers,
family, and friends, who will have a
reserved cheer section located on the
race course. The Spirit Team location
will be tented (in case of rain) and
promises great views of the race course
and race participants. This year’s Spirit
Team theme is American Pride. Don
your best, worst, funniest, patriotic,
red/white/blue garb and join in the fun.
We want the biggest and loudest cheer
section on Monument Avenue, so save
the date and spread the word!
Team Henrico employees celebrating their finish in the 2013 Monument Avenue 10K
This local race, named one of the best race events in the country by USA Today, is Richmond’s
premiere block party. You’re guaranteed to be entertained by world class runners, costumes, live
music, and the beautiful spring foliage along Monument Avenue, the only street in America listed
on the National Register of Historic Places.
Event day flags, pompoms, noise makers, and snacks will
be provided by the Fitness & Wellness Division. Please
consider joining us for Poster Parties on Mondays, March
28 and April 4 at 5 PM; and Wednesdays, March 30 and
April 6 at Noon at the Henrico County Training Center.
Posters, paints, and markers will be provided for Spirit
Team members who wish to make a poster to display on
race day. To register for the Spirit Team and/or Poster
Parties, contact Kelsey Ryder, Fitness & Wellness Intern,
at ryd001@henrico.us.
