All proceeds from the race support a scholarship fund in memory of the late Jim Quinet, owner of Quinet’s Court Restaurant, who was a standout Christian athlete and always carried a smile with him. The 2011 scholarship winners were Brendan Kacor and Timmy Shreves.

The event was sponsored by New Martinsville Rotary, Quinet’s Court Restaurant, Wetzel-Valley Agencies, Valley Towing, Creighton’s Sports Center, Jarvis-Williams Funeral Homes, Witschey’s, RCS Printing, Councilman Joel Potts III, JC Mensore Distributing, WesBanco, Quinet’s Lunch Bunch, Bill and Beulah Talkington, and Bill Talkington’s Gun Shop.

At the Jim Quinet 5K Memorial Run/Walk trophies were also given in the inaugural Ohio River Racing Series. The series was the Quinet event and the Paden City Foundation 5K Run and Walk held on June 4. It is the brainchild of Foundation Race Director Rodney McWilliams and Matt Quinet. Quinet, a very successful runner and tri-athlete, and McWilliams, a participant in local 5K and Half-Marathon races, discussed the idea last year during the WV Oil and Gas Big Moses 5K in Sistersville.

“It’s great the two organizations can work together with the racing series,” Quinet commented.  “It’s a great way for the two communities to partner on a project.” McWilliams agreed, adding,

“Several people in our immediate area participate in running and walking and the racing series is a good way to motivate folks to participate even more.

Winners in the series were son and father Cameron and David Benson as first and second, respectively, in the run division and Alex Thoburn and Linda Eagle as first and second, respectively, in the walk division.
