Via press release –
The James Sun Memorial 5K Race will be held in Old Trail Village Saturday, April 28th. Registration begins at 7:45am; race start is 9am.
James Sun, a member of the current Sophomore Class at Western Albemarle High School, was killed in a car accident while skateboarding near his home in 2011. The 5K race, organized by James’s former classmates, will raise funds to install a tree and plaque in his memory at the High School. As a request from the Sun family, additional funds raised will go to The Compassionate Friends, a non-profit group that supports parents who have lost a child.
The 5K course will begin and end at the Old Trail Village Center, following most of the Lindy Bain Cross Country Course in Old Trail Village.
