Running of the Rams 5k
About this race
We hope you will join us Friday, May 8th at 6:30pm for our 13th Annual Running of the Rams 5K Run/Walk! This year we are bringing back the food truck and kids' zone and of course lots of music! Each registered 5k participant (excluding ghost runners and Rams of Tomorrow Fun runners) will receive a wrist band valued at $10 that may be used at the Collins Family food truck. You may purchase additional food as desired.
The first 400 registered participants of the 5K who cross the finish line, will receive a finisher's medal. All of our Rams of Tomorrow Fun run participants will receive a special finisher's medal.
We will also be welcoming Mister Softee to our event. They'll be serving up whatever your sweet treat heart desires, for purchase.
This always a great family and community event and we look forward to seeing you and your family and friends!
All proceeds benefit Oak Elementary School directly. This year's proceeds will be used for playground improvements.
