THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Established in memory of Sarah Elizabeth Ramsey, Class of 2012, the Sarah Ramsey Strong Fund (SRSF) offers outstanding students the opportunity to expand their professional and global experiences while attending Champlain College. Our annual scholarship has been awarded to six outstanding Stiller School of Business students since 2015. And together with Champlain College, we've helped create the Sarah Ramsey iLab to foster student innovation and collaboration. The support of SRSF friends, donors, volunteers and sponsors enables us to continue to celebrate Sarah's inspiring, passionate creativity and zest for life, and encourage Champlain students to defy all odds in pursuit of their dreams.
Sarah Ramsey Strong 5K Moves to SPRING, 2020
After celebrating the 5th Anniversary of our SRSF 5K race last fall, we've decided to change our SRS race going forward. The next SRS race will be in the spring, giving us more opportunities to attract runners and walkers eager to get out early in the season. Stay tuned for a new date and SRS race registration details early in 2020!
Congratulations Lauren Girard, Class of '21

Sarah Ramsey '12 INNOVATION LAB
Perfectly situated in the heart of the Stiller School of Business, the Sarah Ramsey iLab thrives with creativity and idea-sharing, as students and faculty return to the campus this fall. Accessible to students 24x7, the iLab is widely utilized as drop-in space for class projects, as well as for scheduled forums to engage local businesses with students as they collaborate and explore innovation in preparation for business careers.
REMEMBERING
John Duncan
John Duncan volunteered as race director for the SRS 5K race for four years. He was with us for our very first Burlington race in 2015, sharing his expertise and guiding us on how to recruit volunteers and organize runners, and manage all many of the details that would help ensure a successful event. We are saddened at the sudden loss of this wonderful friend who gave generously of his time and energy for so many local organizations. Our deepest condolences to John's family and friends at this difficult time.
