Members of the Bismarck Rotary Club manned a cheering station for several hours on a very wet Saturday morning to encourage runners in the Bismarck Marathon.  The event on September 17 included a 10K, half-marathon, relay marathon, and full marathon.  Over 2,300 runners participated in various events over three days.  The Bismarck Rotary Club scholarship fund will receive a $500 donation from the Bismarck Marathon organizing committee as a thanks for their support.
