Elementary School Co-Ed Cross Country Run 2011
MANITOUWADGE, ON – On Friday, October 14, 2011 Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School hosted the annual co-ed invitational cross country run. Young dedicated runners from both the Manitouwadge Public School as well as École Publique Franco-Manitou participated in the 3km run that was held on the ski hill road. Students, parents, and coaches encouraged all the runners to push forward and cheered them on till the end. All participants showed a great amount of enthusiasm and sportsmanship. After the race had come to an end, the students gathered at the OLOL School for a light snack that was provided by the schools. Mme Foucault-Clark and Mrs.Kristy Lachance then presented certificates to all the runners and also to those who had placed in their division. Gold medallions were awarded for those who came first in their division.
Rajia Hache (MPS) came in first in the primary division at 13:38. Tristan Oliveira (O.L.O.L.) came first in the junior division at 13:39. Zachary Bellerose (ÉPFM) came first in the intermediate division at 15:51. This event would not be possible without dedicated coaches. We would like to thank Belinda Schleier (MPS) and Mme. Tina Paquette EP), and also all the judges and volunteers who helped make it a successful day! We hope to see everyone again next year!
