Brooke & Girls    Fun Run Group
The kid's fun run is always a popular event and those who were watching,
were as excited as a group of fans at an olympic event.

Ken Bendy    Vanessa Boyd
Ken Bendy was the Striders Communications Director; he announced the runners as they crossed the finish line and also officiated at the Awards Ceremony.
