The second annual “George’s Goats for Grammas” run/walk drew more than 150 participants to Cable Saturday, April 26, with proceeds designated for a charitable mission in Zambia, Africa.
The race is named for George Voss, a resident of Water’s Edge Long-Term Care Center in Hayward. He is the inspiration behind the event, which raises money to buy goats, chickens, seed and a well for grandmothers in Zambia, Africa, who are raising their grandchildren (most of them orphaned because of AIDS).
Logan Dahlbacka of Hurley and Alyssa Bjerlien of Lake Nebagamon were the top male and female, respectively, in the 5-kilometer run, while Jon Lindberg of Lake Nebagamon and Kerry Jarvis of Hayward were the top man and woman, respectively, in the 5-mile run.
