Course Map and directions
It would start on the road at the corner of Lake Tomahawk (Rhododendron and Laurel Circle) It would head west past the tennis courts, then go right at the corner of S. Cherokee around that bend to Hiawassee Avenue. Then it goes all the way down Hiawassee to Cragmont and turns left. Right before State Street – turn left up Border. Left on New Bern. Right on Connally Street, to the left on Church. Continue around the bend and go left down Oakland. At Rhododendron, turn left again. Go past the parking lot of the Lake and turn right down the little bit of Connally to take you to the lake. Runners would then make almost a complete lap (clockwise) around the lake and finish by the parking lot.

Many great raffle prizes!!
Fund raising Fun Run to aid Melanie Christian with mounting medical bills.
Melanie Christian was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of Breast Cancer in Sept 2011. She was accepted into a Research Program at UNC Chapel Hill and has almost completed the treatment regimen: 5 months of weekly Chemotherapy, Mastectomy, and 5 weeks of daily Radiation.
In the fall, she will have 2 or 3 more surgeries for reconstruction. The great news is that Melanie had a “total response” to the treatments and the cancer is GONE!!! And so are the funds!!!!! Melanie is blessed to be employed by TD Bank and has been provided very good insurance coverage. However, her portion of the medical expenses is still staggering.
Melanie is a single mom of two gorgeous girls – Cade and Cole. She has had as much fun with cancer as you can possibly have. She has used her hair loss as an excuse to rock a Mullet for a while then shave it and let her daughters’ first and third grade classes paint on her head. Her faith and positive attitude during this journey have been unfaltering. She has been surrounded by friends, support, and so much laughter……….
