UCSD's Cross Country team will compete at the Skyview Invitational in Soldotna on Saturday, August 24. Although originally scheduled to run in Bethel, the Raiders were rerouted to Soldotna at the last minute when the Bethel event was cancelled.  The girls will run at 1 PM  and the boys at 2:15 PM on Saturday. Nine students will participate in the Invitational and the team will return home on Sunday.  We will post results when we receive them from school officials.  

Fifteen teams came out for the annual Aleutian Tundra Golf Classic, a fundraiser for Unalaska Community Broadcasting, on August 10 and 11.  Campbell McLaughlin won the Closest to the Pin contest with a hole in one--congratulations, Campbell!

5th Annual Bobby Johnson Summer Bay Classic participants (PCR Staff)

On a wet and gray August 5^th afternoon, ten runners/walkers and four bikers gathered at the community center for the 5^th annual Bobby Johnson Summer Bay Classic. Twenty six signed up to participate, but weather was probably a factor for the low turnout. Before the race began, PCR Coordinator Nick Cron revealed a slight change on this year’s half marathon race route. Historically, the race began at the Broadway Ave going south to the valley, up Overland Pass onto Summer Bay road and finally turning left on King Road, finishing just a few meters shy of Bayview. This year, organizers extended the finish line farther out to make it a true 13.1 track and ending closer to the Town Park, the location of the Music In the Park series, another event planned by the Department of Parks Culture and Recreation. As she crossed the finish line, veteran runner Holly Holman checked her GPS watch and noted that she had logged 13.11 miles of running. The awards ceremony was held at Town Park.
