The 10th Annual & Final Lois Comer Memorial Back Road 5K Challenge will take place Saturday April 6, 2019 at 8:30am.
On September 13, 2009, our mother, Lois Jean Comer, lost a courageous battle
with cancer. In honor of our mother, the tenth and final running of the Lois
Jean Comer Back Road Challenge. All
proceeds from this race have gone to the Lois Jean Comer Memorial Scholarship
which to date has raised over $30,000 in scholarship money given to deserving
Page County High School seniors to help further their educations. We are
thankful to all who have participated through the years and hope to make this
final running of the event a special one! Thank you for all of your support and
fond memories of Mom and we hope to see you there!
