What is PMC?

When children arrived between 9 and 9:30 am, they received

matching t-shirts and were guided to the course. They spent the

morning riding around the driveway, taking breaks every few

laps for drinks, snack, rest, and face painting.

At 10 am kids and their siblings participated in a mini soccer

clinic hosted by the EC women’s soccer team and were met by

the EC gull. By 11 am, children took their last laps, ending the

event. Eve
