The run will take place on Friday, Sept. 12.

The 3rd annual Jeffrey’s Rainbow Run is to honor the life of Salem Resident Jeffrey Bourgeois, whose life was lost in a tragic accident in the Spring of 2012. Proceeds from this race fund a scholarship in his name given to two graduating students at East Lyme High School who look to further their education in the Animal Sciences field or a career in which they will work with children.
