The course somewhat flat but has some fun hills for a bit a a challenge. Nothing too serious. (LOL) You can run, walk, jog, flip or roll with a stroller. No pet allowed for liability reasons.
Finisher Awards: TBD

In the past we have used these funds to help local veterans with, clothing, food, blessing bags and so much more. Funds raised also help with building improvement funds like updating the handicapped restrooms. All this is possible with your help and participation.
After Party: The legion opens with refreshment services at 10:00 for this event. There will be free chili and desserts after the race so make sure you stick around. There will be a silent auction along with a 50/50.
