Corporate Cup Win!

A walking team from the Durick Library brought home a first prize win in the 25th Vermont Corporate Cup Challenge. The three person team, Walks with Scissors, finished on top in the "Mixed Non-Profit" division with a total time of 2:01:54. Team member Liz Scott, college archivist, also placed 23rd overall in a field of 926 walkers with an individual time of 37:48 for the 5K race. The other team members included Kathy Godlewski and Mark McAteer. The same team finished second in 2007 and 3rd in 2006, particularly impressive for a team with a combined age of 140+ years!
