NORTH SHORE realtors will take
on a tough race of running, cycling
and canoeing before tackling the
obstacle course that winds up the
Grouse Mountain Race for Crippl-

Eight teams of realtors will vie
for top spot in this t2th annual
race, helping raise approximately
$3,000 for the B.C. Lions Society
for Crippled Children.

Money raised comes from the
teams, which must pay various
amounts depending on their
finishes — the top team pays $250,
with payments progressing higher
until the losing team pays $350.

Defending champion Block Bros
Realty’s Delbrook office team —
also the realtors’ summer baseball

doubles over Megan McCarney of
Edina, Minn., and Molly Gavin of
Fargo, N.D., 6-4, 6-2.

third seed Lindsay Davenport of
Palos Verdes, Calif., 12th seed
Jeyaseelan made it to the finals of
the consolation rounds of the U.S.
Hardcourt National Champion-
ships and took sixth place overall.

In doubles, Jeyaseelan and
Kolbovic reached the semi-finals,
losing to the top seeds in straight
sets 6-1, 6-3.

race, and expect to continue the
winning tradition.

Though promising a competitive
team again this year, a Block Bros
manager conceded that one event
could make all the difference when
the points are tabulated.

Two racers from each of the
eight-member teams — which must
have a minimum of two women —
take on each stage of the race.

Spectators wanting to take in the
race action should be at the top of
the Grouse Mountain skyride be-
fore the 3 p.m. start.

Cash prizes of $250, $100 and
$50 will be up for grabs in a raffle.
