15th Annual Renie Amoss Memorial Race

Release date: October 21, 2007 |

The 15th Annual Renie Amoss Memorial Race will be held during Goucher College’s Family Weekend on Sunday, October 21, at 9 a.m. Sponsored by the Goucher Athletic Department, the race is a tribute to Corene “Renie” Amoss ’93, a three-sport athlete and honors student who majored in economics and management before she died in an automobile accident in 1993.

Please go to http://www.goucher.edu/x6883.xml to register for the 5K race or the 1.5-mile walk. Pre-registration is $10, or $15 on race day. Payments must be in cash or by check made payable to Goucher College.

The proceeds from the memorial run go toward the Renie Amoss Fund, which grants two monetary awards each school year to Goucher College students who have established an exceptional academic record while participating in more than one aspect of co-curricular student life on campus. Race proceeds, fundraising events, and generous donations have brought the trust fund total to more than $100,000. Investment returns have been used to fund annual awards to 19 Goucher students, including this year’s awardees, Sally Gordon and Taylor Sampson.
