THE VANCOUVER SUN RUN 2010
TEAM LEE'S BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATION OF CANADA
Perhaps it was the vibrant Olympic spirit that remained from earlier this year, or perhaps it was a warm Sunday in May, but the Lee’s Benevolent Association of Canada proudly produced a team of 16 members for the Vancouver Sun Run. In a sea of over 51,000 participants, the team completed the run in good time. At this time, the Lee’s Association is the only traditional Vancouver Chinatown clan and surname association that has entered a team for this long running local event. It’s our hope that by participating in such events, we can encourage others to join us in friendly competition and build communities. The team’s stats are featured below:
