Important Notes:
- All children should be accompanied by an adult. There will be volunteers to help monitor the 1/2 mile and 1 mile routes but at least one adult should be present at the start and finish line.
- This run is not a chipped timed event. Instead a race clock will be keeping the time from the start for each run group/distance and can be viewed at the finish line.
- The first run is the student 1/2 mile run, followed by the student 1 mile run. The 5K distance will be the last group to begin. At this time we cannot guarantee the exact start time of the 5K, but we encourage families and our community to come and hang out and cheer on the other runners! Bring a sign and line the route to encourage other runners.
- Student races for the 1/2 mile and 1-mile race show recommendations for age. This is only a recommendation. Please register for the distance that is best for your child's ability.
- Shirts and run bibs can be picked up on the afternoon of May 29. Details will be emailed out before the event.
- Parking is available at Windjammer Park or near the water-treatment facility. Carpooling is encouraged.
- Please leave your pets at home.
- No inflatable costumes will be allowed, but 1980s style is encouraged.
