There were smiles all around at this year’s Murfreesboro “Middle Half” Marathon. We had a great team of volunteers serve as the last water stop on the course, cheering participants on for the last stretch of the race. Our crew made homemade signs to encourage the runners, while others continued to stock the cups of water and Gatorade as the runners came by. We also had music playing which gave them an extra spring in their step as they heard the fun tunes coming from the speaker on our box truck!

We love working with the wonderful team of organizers, including Deborah Roberts, who coordinates all the water stations on the course every year.

“Every year, Lee Company has provided essential volunteers needed to sponsor one of our water stations. Their team is a pleasure to work with and we could not do it without them! We look forward to a continued partnership in the years to come.” commented Deborah.

Supporting The Middle Half is one of the ways we show love and appreciation for our communities. This event is especially near and dear to us as we can see the impact we make just by being present and encouraging everyone on the final leg of the race. Watch for us in 2022 at the Murfreesboro Half Marathon; we’ll be there cheering everyone on!
