The Great Race: 2010 Loon Lake 5.5K
(Talk of the Town photos by Jennifer Zartman Romano) 
The annual Loon Lake 5.5K run and walk was held July 3, with over 200 registered participants circling the lake. According to race organizer Garry Hill, the event was very successful with approximately 70 participants registering less than a week before the event. Comfortable temperatures and plenty of sunshine made the event enjoyable for all. Hill was pleased with the event and looks forward to coordinating the race again in 2011.
Above, a group of walkers make their way through the first leg of the race -- around the south shore of the lake. Runners said the hills on the west side of the lake were quite challenging, making the race among the more difficult ones locally this summer.
At right, from left, are volunteers Judi Huffman, Terry Huffman, Garry Hill and participant Laurie Heller-Reed. Heller-Reed had just completed the race and was eager to check her time.
