After many residents in the Partridge Ave. area began working from home, Roxane Scrima and her neighbor, Tina Lu, decided to start a neighborhood “Google Group” In mid-March. They rang doorbells to collect emails to begin this process. All that work paid off when on Monday, April 20, they celebrated their first event: The Partridge Avenue Marathon, running the lower half from Medford St. to Vernon St. Everyone was told to wear masks and sign up to run down the middle of the street or to cheer from their doorsteps. The event was a huge success.
