Woodruff a top neighborhood in 2017 NESCO Games

Woodruff residents eagerly participated again this year in the 2017 NESCO Games, a weeklong series of competitions of sport and skill held on the Near Eastside. On June 24, the closing day of competitions with strong participation in the track and field events, Woodruff Place took 3rd place in the week’s events overall for the second year in a row out of over 20 neighborhoods and Near Eastside organizations that were participating. Neighborhood points for the overall 3rd were achieved through individual residents placing in a variety of categories including shot put, 4×100 meter relay, long jump, Frisbee golf, and great representation in rooftop hockey, volleyball, trivia and more.
