The tragic death of a nine-year-old boy has spurred an ongoing tradition that has turned his memory into a legend.
Thirty years ago, Evan Luker was killed in a car accident, and today students from various elementary schools in Bracebridge will run in his memory.
Evan’s father, Art Luker, says he remembers a young boy who loved to run.
Elementary school students from across the Muskoka region will be attending the Evan Luker Run, which will be held at Macauly Public School.
The run kicks off at 9 a.m.
