Erin’s Run was scheduled for Spring 2020, but the run/walk did not take place due to Covid. Since then it has been put on hold.
But the 5K honoring Erin Woolley’s memory will take place this Sunday for the first time since 2019.
After dying of cancer in 2010, Erin’s friends and family started racing in 2013.
Erin’s Run is fundraising for several non-profit organizations.
All money raised will be used to support causes such as
- Partners for Peace (where Erin worked), formerly Spruce Run – Womancare Alliance.
- Bangor YMCA (where Erin learned to swim)
- University of Maine Swimming & Diving Program (where Erin was a star),
- Erin’s memorable scholarship at Bangor High School (Erin was a student, a swimmer and most of all a friend).
The event takes place this Sunday at Bangor Waterfront. It’s the day before Halloween, so the theme will be Halloween. We recommend wearing a costume.
