An RTN / ITR staff member contacted the majority of the events scheduled for this upcoming weekend to determine if they would still be held in the wake of the horrible tragedy earlier this week. Every event that we spoke with, with the exception of one, will go on as scheduled.

The only event that we are aware of that has been cancelled is the Devil Dog Run in Lawton, Oklahoma. This race, staged by a group of Marines, will not be held this weekend because they simply will not have the manpower to organize the race this weekend, according to Capt. Garrett Benson. The event may be rescheduled at a later date. If the event is not held, Benson said that they will hold a raffle for the prizes that have been donated within a few weeks.
