It was an ideal Saturday for a run – sunny but not too hot – and the crowd that turned out to the Rotary Run for Rwanda was enthusiastic and competitive! Grandparents, sons and daughters, grandsons and daughters, friends and relatives and even a few dogs, everyone seemed to be having a great time. At the end, it was tough to sort out the serious runners from the others, but we managed to work out the winners in time for the prize-giving, with belated apologies to the Bentall and Kenney family.

Properties, Frits de Vries Architects, Dr. Gloria Chao, Barbara Wahler Interior Design, McTaggart Water, Ruddy Potato, Artisan Eats, Snug Café, General Store, Savary Island Pie Co., Phoenix, Union Steamship Co., Cates Pharmacy, and last but not least the Undercurrent for accepting our articles!
