After a hiatus of one year, the Deer Park Run/Walk was back in stride but this time taking place in late summer instead of late spring. The weather for running was ideal. The day was sunny and calm, temperatures began in the lower 50's and climbed into the upper 50's at the finish line.

The sponsor has changed from the fire department to the St. Croix Grower's Association.

The race was again headed by Joe Ailts and yes, there will be another race in 2010.

The facilities of the Deer Park Village Park complete with restrooms, a shelter and tables were used.
