Jackson CDC 5K

We will be running through the beautiful streets of the historic Huntington neighborhood, soaking in the unique architecture of the homes as we fundraise to support the Jackson Community Development Corporation.  The Jackson CDC envisions the wholistic well-being of the Jackson neighborhood where residents are known, valued, and empowered to collaborate for the thriving of its people and place.  Check out our website, jacksoncdc.org, for much more information about our neighborhood and organization. 

To add to the fun, join the costume competition at 8:30am with winners being announced right before the race begins. Wearing costumes during the race is optional.
