Loudon, NH - August 5, 2009: The Conway Police Department Running Team netted individual and team honors at the 19th running of the NH State Police D.A.R.E. Classic 5K road race. On Wednesday August 5th, Conway PD's co-ed group of four men and two women joined 1500 additional runners at the annual race held at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, NH. This certified 5K draws competitive runners from all around New England and is a key fundraiser for NH D.A.R.E. programs across the State.
The team members are Sgt. George Walker, Cpl. Aimee Parent, Officer Jaymes Lapoint, Officer Chris Mattei, Officer Tom McCormack and Administrative Assistant Lora Santuccio. Team members not present at the race were Dispatcher Rachel Fecteau and Patrolman Ryan Wallace. In addition, helping out the CPD team were Ty McCormack age 4, son of Officer McCormack, and Josh Mattei age 7, son of Officer Chris Mattei. Competing in the tough Law Enforcement Division, they ran their hearts out on this hilly and challenging course. Several members posted personal bests for times at this year's race. The team took third place in the Law Enforcement Team category. Individual honors went to Officer Chris Mattei, 2nd Place in his age division, and Corporal Aimee Parent, beating all challengers for first place in her division.
All proceeds from the D.A.R.E. Classic 5K go to supporting the expenses associated with providing support services and workbooks for the D.A.R.E. programs throughout the State.
Conway PD Running Team Members: Cpl. Aimee Parent, Admin. Asst. Lora Santuccio, Ptl. Chris Mattei, Ptl. Jaymes Lapoint, Sgt. George Walker and Ptl. Tom McCormack
