An Evening with Lazarus
Lake in honour of Vince Perdue
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Our Evening with Laz was
a great success. Not even the lousy winter weather weather
kept people away.
The BBs wish to thank you for your support.
Your very presence was a reflection of the purpose of
the event; the running community in this town is strong.
Because of your support, we have successfully
raised the targeted funds. Keep your ears open for an
announcement. We will have a ceremony at Perdue Peak in
the coming months to celebrate the renaming of the 360-degree
lookout.
Events like these can only be successful
if people show up, and you did that. So, thank you!
The amazing Jess McShane documented our
fun evening and has shared her photos here. Feel free
to take a look: https://bbbu.jessmcshane.ca/set/fd553e63-2d96-4bbf-aba3-a4e7099f6eaf
Our community is better because of Vince,
and each of you!

Some Notes
__________________
Dear Gary and Sandra,
On behalf of the Sudbury Running Community,
thank you again for making the long journey from Tennessee.
We were so thrilled to have you as part of the
celebration for Vince and our audience loved the presentation
and the question and answer session. On a personal note it was
a joy to be able to spend time with you both. You were both
so generous with your time, we hope we were able to make the
experience as enjoyable for you as it has been for us.
No doubt you will be treated like royalty by
our friends at Straw Dog Racing/Sulphur Springs Trail Races
in the Greater Toronto Area. Enjoy your time there, including
the Leafs game and safe travels.
Kind regards and thank you again from the organizing
team. Please remember we are always open to hosting you in the
warmer months and Gary I'll line up a geology tour for you if
you can make it!
Helen, Andre, Lisa, Tannys and Carl and of course
Vince\

I appreciate all you did for us and all you
do for the running community. It was an honor meeting Vince
and being part of his celebration.
I hope we will come back at a time we could
walk the trails and see all the work that has been done.
Thank you for letting me join in and getting
to see this part of Canada! I am so happy it was a success for
you all!

Thank
you all for treating me to one of the best days
of my life. " And I feel I just meandered through
life and this happened". I
have learned a few things along the way but what
appears most imortant to me is the true friends
gained plus I realize I have a very supportive family
group. I am truly blessed.
There
are too many to mention but a special thanks go
out to Andre and Helen for actually making the event
happen. Also thank you so much to Laz and Sandra
for making the arduous trip to the north. We are
all grateful for your presense. You truly made it
a special day for all of us.
Vince
Perdue
