VALLEY FRIENDSHIP TOUR

Saturday, May 30, 2009

A Fun Day for a Great Cause!
Gather family, friends and co-workers for a day of fun and exercise on Saturday, May 30th, at the 24th Annual Valley Friendship Tour. Walk, jog, or pedal along one of three non-competitive routes. Water stops, sweep vehicles, bike tuning and emergency services ensure an enjoyable and safe event. At the Finish Line, participants will enjoy a healthy lunch, music, and great prizes!

GERRY'S TOUR
In 2004, we dedicated the Tour in memory of Gerry Gaudette, our friend and mentor for three decades. We invite you to join the Gaudette family and friends team, "Gerry's Gang", to celebrate Gerry's life. For more information, please contact Lee Gaudette at lee@gaudetteinsurance.com.

25 Miles, 9:00 AM Start
This 25 mile route takes you through several towns and some of the most beautiful spots in the historic Blackstone Valley. A great ride to enjoy the sites and sounds of a late spring day.

5 Kilometer, 10:00 AM Start
This 5K route, open to both walkers and joggers, will take you through the historic Northbridge area. This is a great event for those who wish to get exercise, prep for upcoming races, or just want to spend the morning out with family and friends!

Golden Mile, 11:00 AM Start
The Golden Mile will take you through Whitinsville and is perfect for families with strollers, young children who wish to walk, wheel chairs and seniors. The later start time enables you to come out for a nice short stroll and get back for a great lunch and entertainment to be enjoyed by all!
