Recommendation and Review
The Sherry Burcham Anderson Memorial 5K Run/Walk and Kids Fun-Run on October 18, 2014 will be held at Skyline Elementary & Middle School starting at 9:00am. The course will require police and public works assistance to close Linda Lane during the event. With the chosen route for this year Linda Lane will be closed at 8:15am on Saturday with NO exceptions. Only EMS, Fire, and Police vehicles will be able to pass through after that time in case of emergency. The event organizers are responsible for communicating with participant's alternant routes of access, letting the hotel know of the event, and communicating with the company located on Country Club Road that their Linda Lane access road will also be blocked off during this time. We would like to add that going forward the departments would like to see the course altered to make the route safer as it grows each year.
