Looking back Bloomsday promoters in 1977

Original course

Displaying a map of the very first Bloomsday course in 1977 were the race’s founder and three supporters. From left were Dick Maginot, standing, American Sign and Indicator Co.; Don Kardong, Bloomsday Founder and current director; E. Lee Rae Clark, standing, Medical Service Corp; and Spokane Mayor David Rodgers. The original route for Bloomsday, much different than today, crossed the Maple Street Bridge.
