Celebrating 2025: AGM and Potluck
The 2025 Annual General Meeting took place on November 16, 2025. The Russell Legion was the perfect venue for members to enjoy a great potluck meal organized by Crystal MacKinnon.
In addition to enjoying great food, we celebrated the club's accomplishments in 2025, confirmed the board for 2025 and celebrated the volunteers that make the club a success. Members also chimed in with lots of ideas to be considered for next year as we get ready to open membership for 2026.
While the meeting was live streamed on Facebook to allow some that could not be there in person to follow along.
Awards and Recognition
The highlight of the AGM was certainly the opportunity to recognize the heart of the Russell Run Club - the volunteers that make it possible for the programs and events possible.
Volunteers were awarded by the number of hours they contributed in 2025 as well as a couple of special recognition awards for our club photographer, Norm Fortin and the Lalonde's that donated the medals for the Russell Run.
We also had 3 member nominated awards to celebrate individuals who really embody the club's values.
