Kerstetter 5K Run and a Benefit for Feral Cats


This weekend is the annual Kerstetter 5K Run in the City of Elyria.   Officer James Kerstetter was a proud and valued member of the Elyria Police Department for 15 years before being killed in the line of duty on March 15, 2010. Join your fellow Elyrians as we remember one of our heroes and raise money for the Kerstetter 5K Scholarship fund. Go here for more information on the event.  Registration starts Saturday, July 13th at 7:00am and the race beings at 8:30.  Please come out and support our police officers and our community as we take a few more steps towards getting healthy!

On August 1st, the City of Elyria will also be partnering with the Lake Erie Crushers, Lorain County Friendship APL, and WKNR ESPN Cleveland to  raise funds as we try to address the feral cat situation in the City of Elyria.  Proceeds from the ticket sales will benefit the Trap/Neuter/Return program that has been proven to be the most humane and effective method of addressing the feral cat population.  Please click here and enter the promo code “CATS” to purchase tickets.
