To the Editor:
The 22nd Annual Waterford Fall Foliage 5K Road Race is a GO for October 10. Since 2000, this event has allowed the Tony Waldeier Scholarship Fund to give over $74,000 to 101 students. Even though the Race was cancelled in 2020, six $1,000.00 scholarships went to Waterford Memorial School graduates.
Already there are six new applicants, and the 2021 deadline is April 26. Please celebrate student achievement by running or volunteering on race day, or by donating to the fund. We are prepared to modify or cancel this event should COVID regulations change, but scholarships will always be awarded.
Please visit our website and Facebook pages for updates and to learn more ways to help or get involved. Stay well. Many, many thanks to everyone who has participated or supported in any way over the years. We look forward to seeing you on October 10.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
