As a member of the NOTC for over forty years, Don Garvey has supported the club as an active race participant, club treasurer, and very generous sponsor. Don started the Radiofone Beeper Run because he wanted to give something back to the running community. The Beeper Run was one of NOTC's most popular races, and was an important event on the running calendar for many years. Even though the Beeper Run has gone away, Don's generosity to the running community and the NOTC has not, as he continues to support the NOTC through his charitable contributions. As a proponent of the running community Don has encouraged most of his family to become runners, and many are still running.
