At a special “wrap up “ meeting for the 2014 Marcum Workplace Challenge, Greater Long Island Running Club Vice President and Event Director Mindy Davidson of Farmingdale, presented a special plaque to Winsome Foulkes, team captain of the Farmingdale-based Telephonics Corporation. Winsome is retiring from Telephonics after a long and successful career and has led the Telephonics Corporation in the Marcum Workplace Challenge since its inception.
The plaque reads: “A very special thank you presented to Winsome Foulkes, Team Captain of Telephonics, for your many years of support. Here is to a wonderful journey ahead of you.
It is not only one person’s work. It’s really a partnership and collaboration during all these years.”
A record 9,300 runners and walkers from 217 Long Island corporations, government agencies and not-for-profits were on hand for this year’s Marcum Workplace Challenge, making it possible for $101,000 to be raised for three Long Island charities: Long Island Children’s Museum, the Children’s Medical Fund of Long Island, and Long Island Cares-The Harry Chapin Food Bank.
