On
Saturday, August 2, 2013, Burke Christensen accomplished his goal of running 67
miles around Bear Lake. Christensen, who
turned 67 years old in December, used this goal as a
fund raiser for the Garden City Library, raising more than $750.00. Blistered and Exhausted, HE DID IT! Mayor John Suppler presented Burke a handmade
frame and photograph of Bear Lake, and the Garden City Librarian, and the
Garden City Library Board of Directors presented a letter to Christensen,
thanking him for his tremendous kindness and generosity. Every patron of the library will benefit from
his run!
