Team OMC

In 2004, the OMC Foundation initiated a new program that has greatly aided the hospital’s quest to maintain its status as one of the highest-rated medical centers in North America. Team OMC is the ultimate volunteer experience.

We first ask you to train to run a half marathon or full marathon race. We will provide you with coaching and a mentor to help you train properly. While doing so, we ask you to raise funds for the Olympic Medical Center Cardiac Care Department or the Sequim Cancer Center. If you choose, you can raise money on behalf of a patient, or it can be in memorial. The fundraising minimum for this year’s marathon is $2,000.00.

All team members who have raised the minimum, will travel as a team to the PF Chang’s Rock ‘n’ Roll San Antonio Marathon to compete in either the half or full marathon. This event takes place on Sunday, November 16, 2008, and event highlights include scenic courses, live music every mile by 70 live bands, 40 cheer teams, perfect running weather, free admission to the headliner concert, participant t-shirt, finisher’s medal and certificate, and awards in all age divisions. The scenic course will highlight the signature sights of San Antonio, including the Alamo and lush Mission Trail, home of four missions and centuries of culture. The race will finish outside of the Alamodome with a Finish Line Fiesta for race participants and their friends and family.

We invite you to join the Olympic Medical Center Foundation’s Team OMC event by becoming a member of Team OMC, or by supporting your favorite team member with a donation.
