Lake Run 2015 - A Huge Success!
Many publications including the LO Review, Lake Oswego & West Lake Living and LO Neighbors, did a great job helping us get the word out to the community about the Lake Run.  We were also well supported by business and organizations that hosted our posters in their windows.  Its wonderful to have the community involved and participating in the Lake Run.

The best story from the 39th Lake Run comes from the family of Kay Eden, a 90 year old woman and 5k Lake Run participant.  She lost her husband of 69 years in January and started doing daily walks around Lake Oswego as a way to get outside and get her strength back. She decided she wanted to try to do Lake Run's 5K so 11 members of her family signed up and all walked with her.  The family appreciated that there were many great volunteers along the route encouraging her as they went by. Kay was so happy and overcome with emotion when she crossed the finish line - the family was all very proud of her.  Kay Eden was acknowledged at the awards ceremony and presented a medal for her achievement.

Thank you for another successful Lake Run!
There are no words that can express how grateful I am to have such amazing people on my team and those that contributed to the success of the Lake Run this year.
Just a few of the Lake Run Team and volunteers
I feel very proud being a member of the Lake Oswego's Women's Club.  I hope every one of you feels the same way. You are all amazing women!  WE DID AWESOME!!  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!


We have received only positive feedback so far so it seems that everyone had fun.  Nothing can dampen the excitement and pride we should all feel.  Enormous effort, countless hours, hurt feelings and forgiveness, missed family events, jumping through hoops at the last minute to make it all happen.  This only touches the things we put aside to accomplish this event.


Some of you are saying great job Fran......I want you to look in the mirror and see the one you should really thank!  Well done, Ladies!
