from Dave Ruckman:
Our 2nd annual, Adopt-a-Village International Humanitarian run was held on May 8th in Palmer Park. It was a blustery spring morning, but runners and walkers came out with warm enthusiasm. This year’s race included a 5K, 10K and Kid’s Fun Run. The event raised over $2,000 to provide pharmaceutical supplies for our June medical excursion to remote villages in Peru .
This year’s top runners in the 10K were: Joel Hawkins – 44:50 & Krista Roy - 52:07
This year’s top runners in the 5K were: Aaron Reistad - 22:03 & Sarah Farmer – 28:15
Special thanks to Spanish teacher Mike Verderaime and his team of Doherty High School students for all their hard work helping organize and staff this event. The Board of AaVI sincerely thanks all the supporters of the run – sponsors, walkers, runners, fundraisers and volunteers – for making this event such a success!
