VASJ and Northeast Shores hold successful "Escape on the Lake" event

Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School and Northeast Shores Development Corporation held their inaugural "Escape on the Lake" 5K Run/1 Mile Walk event on Saturday, July 28.

The race course took runners west on Lakeshore Boulevard to Schenley, then to Dorchester, followed by a route through the Villa Angela Park and back the same way. Runners were impressed with the views of beautiful Lake Erie and the shade provided by the park on the hot and humid morning.

The overall top male finisher was Jordan Kurtz with a time of 16:50 along with the overall top female finisher, Mary Pavicic with a time of 19:55. VASJ and Northeast Shores Development Corporation thank all of the participants who made the event such a huge success and are already looking forward to making next year’s event even better.
