Event summary
This year, we are excited to introduce a new addition: Jake's Jog, a fun run for children aged 10 and under, honoring Jacob, Petey's brother, who also faced the challenges of substance use. Jake's Jog will consist of a single lap around the track, and every child will receive a participation medal, celebrating their efforts and the spirit of community. Come out to support this important cause, whether by participating in the race, cheering on the runners, or volunteering your time. Together, we can make a difference and honor the memories of those we cherish. We can't wait to see you
Organiser's Description
New this year is a kids fun run, called Jake's Jog! It is in honor of Jacob (Petey's brother), who also lost his battle to substance use, on May 29, 2019, at the age of 29. His resting place is right next to his brother. Jacob always drove the golf cart sag wagon at A Pace for Petey, prior to losing his battle. Jake's jog is for kids 10 and under. It will be one lap around the track and all kids will receive a participation medal.
Both boys are GREATLY missed--especially by Jake's daughter, Makenna!
Come join us in the race, or cheer the runners on. Be a sponsor and/or a volunteer! We can't wait to see you all!!
