2nd Remembrance 5k Run, Old Town, ME 8:30am start. Call Neeburbunn Lewis at 207-944-9235 or NrLghts14@yahoo.com This run is to remember Ryan Worcester and Lindsey Almenas and their accomplishments in life. Ryan and Lindsey both attended Old Town High School and were tragically taken from us on September 21, 2005. Their magnetic personalities brought all people together no matter what age or race. To honor them, we have started a scholarship in their names to help Native and non-Native high school graduates to attend college. This is something we know would make them proud, as they both had aspirations to attend college. Print Race Flyer or see the Race Poster.
