South Jersey Softball:
Medford Lakes - A Community That Will Not Stop Tradition

Sunday, July 25, 2004

By Jack Schaub
Medford Lakes Mens Softball Correspondent

For the last 75 years, Medford Lakes has had a community softball league which has endured since 1929. This year is especially important due to the recent tragic floods that have crippled our lakes and homes; but not our spirit. We plan to go on and continue our year end tradition by giving back to the community a year end celebration. Over the last 20 years, the Medford Lakes Men's Softball league has donated over $30,000 to the MLAA (Medford Lakes Athletic Association). This year will we also have a fund drive to give towards the Medford Lakes flood relief fund. I'm sending out this E-mail to let you know of our community and its outpouring of help, hope and determination.

Eight years and counting! That was the theme to this year's Bill Kile's Memorial Run Saturday morning at Jack Curtis Stadium in Cooper River Park. Each year the ultimate goal is to raise money for the William H. Kile Jr. Humanitarian Scholarship Fund and each year the loyal runners show up to participate in either the One Mile Fun Run/Walk or the 4 Mile Run. Bill Kile III is always working hard before, during and after the race is completed greeting, organizing and helping the staff in providing all of the essentials needed in helping the runners in having a good run. In an impressive run, last year's winner Marc Cianfrani improved on his personal time and finished first in front of Daniel Deichert and Margarito Perez. Peggy Levin was the first women to cross the finish line.
