Organiser's Description
This year is our 5th Annual Naples Youth Corporation 5k/10k!! We are moving our race/walk slightly later this year - fingers crossed for less frosty temps on May 3rd, 2025! As always, we will run or walk in wind, rain, snow, or shine, and we hope to see you there. This time when you arrive you will see what the last 4 years' race funds have gone towards building for our local youth - an outdoor stage!! YES, thank you to all you past runners and walkers - you all helped to get this project started. The Naples Youth Corporation is ecstatic to announce our final approval and beginning of site prep starting the chilly month of November!! We will update the website as the building progresses. This run/walk still remains our major fundraiser for the year, and our goal is to further property development of our outdoor performance stage for our local youth and purchase equipment for use with programming.
Free lightweight cotton race shirts for every participant as long as you register in time - don't dally. There will be a very limited supply of additional shirts on race day for purchase or prizes. More prizes will be available this year as well as incentives.
