Dear friends,
Thanks to the incredible support of our
community, the Perdue Peak fundraising campaign was a
success.
We are honoured to invite you to the official
Perdue Peak Dedication Ceremony on:
Saturday, May 30, 2026
11:00 AM
Perdue Peak - Lake Laurentian Conservation Area
This gathering will celebrate the lifelong
contributions and friendship of Vince Perdue and recognize
the countless people whose lives have been touched through
his passion for running and community building.
Guests are invited to park at the Ida
Street parking lot.
A guided group walk to Perdue Peak will depart at 10:15
AM for those who may be unsure on how to get to the peak.
You can expect a rigorous 20-30 minute walk with some
climbing. Wear good shoes.
Thank you again for helping make Perdue
Peak a reality. We look forward to sharing this meaningful
moment with you.
Warm regards,
Andre, Helen, Lisa and Vince

The Lake Laurentian 10K loop is one of Greater
Sudbury’s most beloved hiking and running trails.
Along this route lies a stunning 360º lookout that
will be renamed Perdue Peak.
From the top of this ridge,
visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the cityscape—a
favourite spot for Vince and his late wife, Lise Perdue,
who was his soulmate and running partner.
The Nickel District Conservation
Foundation will install signage and a commemorative plaque
in honour of Vince and Lise, supported by donations that
will ensure the long-term maintenance of the trail and
the memorial.
