Runners, joggers, and walkers – join us for the Clinic for Special Children 5k, a chip-timed, 3.1-mile race along rolling scenic roads through Lancaster County farmland. The course winds past Amish schoolhouses and acres of picturesque farms. Strollers & mobility devices are welcome! The race is presented by Nemours Children's Health!
New this year: a 1.5-mile family walk option! Register for the family walk by April 21st to be guaranteed a race shirt. While supplies last after April 21st.
The chip-timed 5k race and the family walk start and end at the Leola Produce Auction!
