Hundreds out for Irish Jog

(CNS): The 17th Annual St. Patrick’s Day 5K Irish Jog held on 17th March 2009 attracted over 900 runners, walkers and joggers to the finish line. This was the 3rd largest turn-out in the event’s 17-year history, and all proceeds were donated to the Women’s Resource Centre. The event is co-sponsored each year by Butterfield Bank (Cayman) Limited and Grand Cayman Beach Suites. “It was wonderful to see so many enthusiastic participants partake in Cayman’s most popular fun walk/run for charity,” said Rhonda Serrano of Butterfield.

“We keep the entry fee low at just $10 per person so that we can raise as much money as possible for charity, and we are pleased to be able to support the Women’s Resource Centre this year.”

Participants received a T-shirt and were eligible to win one of several fabulous spot prizes, including Waterford crystal, sunset sails, dinners for two and spa services. There were free hats, face stickers, wigs and other fun wear for everyone. Complimentary food and refreshments were available after the event.
