🕯️ Memorial Significance

• Background: After the Worcester Cold Storage Fire on Dec 3, 1999, this road race was created as a living memorial to those men known as the “Worcester Six” – Paul Brotherton, Jerry Lucey, Tim Jackson, Tom Spencer, Jay Lyons and Joe McGuirk.
• Honoring Heroes: Sadly, the Worcester Fire Department has had three other members die in the Line of Duty since 1999: Jon Davies in 2011, Chris Roy in 2018, and Jason Menard in 2019.
• Continued Legacy: This race continues on to remember their memories and dedication to the City of Worcester.
