Alumni Run 2009

What: 2009 Como Park Cross Country Alumni Run
Distance: 2 miles
Date: Wed, August 19
Time: 6:00 p.m.
Where: Como Park cross country course (Lexington and Horton)

Dear Como Park Alums and Affiliates:

Please join us for the 2009 Como Park Cross Country Alumni Run. This year’s installment of the run will be held on Wednesday, August 19th, at 6:00 p.m. The Como Park cross country course is located at the junction of Lexington Parkway and Horton Avenue in St. Paul. As always, the event will give the current high school team a chance to meet the alums on the course for a 2 mile run. Some compete, some run for fun, while others just watch and mingle with old teammates and friends.

Food and beverages will be available after the run. There is no cost to participate in the run, though a suggested donation of $5 will help offset the cost of the food. Please come out if you can. This is a fun social event, and the kids really enjoy seeing the alums every year.

Please spread the word!

I look forward to seeing you all on August 19.

Best,

Chris Lundstrom
