IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT THE WEATHER: 
Absent a blizzard of major proportions, or any other scenario where the Police tell us that going ahead would be unsafe, the Carter, DeLuca, Farrell & Schmidt Ho Ho Ho Holiday Run will proceed as scheduled on December 17th.
In some past years (we recall 1997 as one of them), conditions have been even worse than what is predicted for tomorrow, and we have been able to proceed.
