CHAMBERSBURG – The Chambersburg Area Education Foundation has received a $1,400 donation from the Greater Chambersburg Chamber of Commerce.

The cash represented proceeds from July’s 20th Annual Tim and Susan Cook Memorial One-Mile Race, held each year in memory of Tim and Susan Cook, who lost their lives in a car accident in 2002.

The funds support scholarships for Chambersburg Area Senior High School students who exemplify the Cooks’ values. Nearly 100 runners participated in this year’s event.

“We deeply appreciate the community’s support of this event, which allows us to celebrate the legacy of Tim and Susan Cook by supporting local students in their honor,” said Angela Schaeffer, director of operations at the Greater Chambersburg Chamber of Commerce.
