What a turnout we had for Aaron's Run on Sunday morning - and a beautiful day too! Many thanks to the 118 runners, walkers and families with strollers who came out to support Aaron's Run, get some exercise and eat pie. Together we raised $3,600 for Aaron's scholarship endowment fund. Congratulations to Jesse Baker, this year's $500 scholarship recipient.
