As 2024 slowly comes to an end, those of us at Ogden Midnight Runners would like to express our gratitude to all of those that have helped us make for such a successful first year as a small business.
We'd first like to extend a huge thank you to all of you who attend our events. We always recognize those of you who come regularly. We love the atmosphere you help us create, your willingness to interact with our social media, your kind words of encouragement, and we couldn't be more grateful to see familiar faces at every event we host. We especially appreciate those of you who help our non profit events, as the generosity we receive every year is beyond our wildest dreams. You will always be welcome into our OMR family, and we hope to continue seeing you next year as we continue to make these events bigger and better! ❤️
Next, we would like to thank YOUTH IMPACT, INC. , Jeff Kemp, and all board members / staff / directors who were involved with OMR throughout the year. As most of you know, we organize a few events for our favorite non profit listed above, and we could not be more grateful to have such a great relationship with an amazing program to help shape the next generation of car enthusiasts. We appreciate your time, efforts, and donated venues in helping us organize successful events for our youth. We cherish every opportunity to help youth impact.
A big thank you to Jeff Woodyatt at Import Spring Showoff for allowing us at OMR to help organize one of Utah's most successful and popular car shows. He opened up a ton of doors for us this year and we are forever grateful for this opportunity to participate in such an amazing event. 😈
To our staff / volunteers - OMR would be nothing without our essential inner circle of staff. These guys help us organize events, design merchandise, direct traffic / attendees, set up and take down of events, and so much more I won't list to prevent a book from being written! 😂 Our staff make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible, all because they have faith in where our future is heading. Ogden Midnight Runners wouldn't be what it is today without our family. It is because of those listed below, that we can achieve everything we have. Haylee Spencer , Luis Chivichon , JD DeWolf , Jose Salguero , Moises Santillan , Paul Phillips , and Tiffany Byrd ❤️
To our VP - Veronica Rhead took up the role of VP (sorta voluntarily but not really 👀😂) at the beginning of this year. Veronica designs most of our graphic designs, flyers, t shirts, etc. She helps us make connections with tons of local business owners and car enthusiasts. Helps us detail our cars under her own business VCR Auto Detail ! She helps us spread the word a ton through social media. And she helps us through critical decisions that cannot be left up to 1 person. She is a rock within OMR, and deserves an endless round of applause for her efforts in helping us become as successful and popular as we have. We appreciate you Veronica. 🙌
To our photographer - Moist photography, to say the least, was a huge savior in making sure our social media could be filled with photos of every event we hosted this year. Because of Moises, we were able to insure that all of our events had professional photos taken of most everyone in attendance. Capturing the atmosphere of 12+ events throughout the year is a near impossible task to ask from any photographer, yet Moises always pulled through. We appreciate all your hard work in providing the photos to share with our followers all year long. 📸
And lastly, our sponsors - Impact Glass - Utah , Inspector Tony Home Inspections , Solar Image , Time Graphix , Puerto Rico Detailing & Auto Sales , Campos Auto Body & Glass, LLC , Griff's Auto Detailing Supplies , and Rands Roofing ! These small business owners all took a leap of faith in sponsoring us in hopes that their return would be heavy involvement from those of us in the car community, as well as an advertising opportunity that is fairly new to the UT area. Without their support, we wouldn't have been able to bring you most of the events we hosted this year. We wouldn't have had merchandise to sell and hand out. We wouldn't have had the resources we were able to disperse to our community. We hope to see most of these sponsors again next year, as we had an amazing time talking highly of all of these businesses to anyone who would listen. Word of mouth will always be the key to your success, and we couldn't be happier to advocate the car community to turn towards our sponsors for the resources they may need. We thank you all. 💙
We are always certain that there are those we have not mentioned above that deserve a huge thank you. Take a moment while you are reading this last portion that if you have made it this far into the post, we appreciate you too. Thank you. ❤️
Enjoy this handful of photos below which highlight some of our favorite moments from our events in 2024! 👀😏
