Additional Information

This run is to commemorate Lino Lakes Police Officer Shawn Silvera, who was killed in the line of duty on September 6, 2005, leaving behind a wife and two young children. Shawn was charitable, living his short life of 32 years in service to others with integrity, devotion, character, compassion and strength. He embodied the powerful message carried by the words “BE HERE NOW – LIVE THE IMPORTANCE OF TODAY” - savoring daily moments, relishing opportunities to learn and appreciating his gift to help someone in need. It is for these reasons that we honor Shawn with this event. All participants will receive a commemorative t-shirt. Pre-registrants guaranteed a Goodie Bag. Race results will be posted on www.andersonraces.com For more information visit:www.shawnsilvera.org
