WVII Advances Maine Day Mile Run to Benefit Ronald McDonald House
WVII (Channel 7) reported members of the Senior Skull Honor Society at the University of Maine are hosting a 1K race — the Groove Mile — during Maine Day. More than 500 participants are expected to run, jog or dance the 0.6 mile course to support the Ronald McDonald House. “The Ronald McDonald has been a sponsor of ours for a while,” said UMaine student and Senior Skull member Dylan Bousquet-Smith. “We’ve worked philanthropically with them but we’ve never had an event, so we really wanted to branch out this year and grow and allow the Ronald McDonald House to get the benefits of the University of Maine.”
