The ECC and everyone health- and endurance-sport-minded will sincerely miss Bob’s presence. He and his wife Jennifer were so supportive of our committee and all it does. Jennifer was the one who coined  the phrase “All Trails Lead to Auburn…”, and working together they produced the popular “Auburn Style” posters and postcards. Bob and his side kicks Harvery Roper and Monte Reynolds were regulars as a photographers and videographers at Auburn endurance events, especially WSER and Tevis, and they freely contributed their work to the ECC to use in our promotional materials.

Just a few of our ECC memorable, collaborative efforts with Bob:

• Helping to develop the initial Auburn Endurance 100 Challenge.
• Setting up big screens and coordinating City support for the popular Endurance Capital Street Parties/Expos managed by Shannon Weil and held in Old Town.
• Working with us and the Arts Commission on the Nevada Street  Rip Cronk Dawson Tanks mural project.

• Helping us chalk “Endurance Capital of the World™” in huge letters on High Street for both the Tour of California bike races that came to Auburn.

• Supporting the ECC’s plan (created by Harvey Roper) for the Endurance Zone section of the Streetscape in Downtown Auburn.

• Assisting the ECC with its early outreach efforts at local events like the Home Show, and the WSER and Tevis Finish lines.
• Helping to coordinate and mediate the extensive Auburn State Recreation Area Advisory SubCommittee Trail User Group Meetings (2013-2014) to help provide the ASRA General Plan trail construction options, the user groups’ Safety/Etiquette guidelines and the popular ECC ASRA Trail Map.

The ECC thanks you for all you have done for the City during your tenures here. We sincerely hope that your retirement will provide you and Jennifer with more time to join us in our activities!
