What's Happening in Holland, OH--The sixth annual Rollie Run

The sixth annual Rollie Run took place June 19 at Community Homecoming Park in conjunction with the Strawberry Festival.

Held in memory of Rollie Denker III, a Springfield Township resident and 1979 graduate of Springfield High School who died in 2004, the event raises money for scholarships that are awarded to SHS students who plan to pursue a degree in the medical field.
