WE'VE PARTNERED WITH A LOCAL RACE COMPANY AGAIN THIS YEAR TO PROVIDE CHIP TIMING FOR THE 5K. WE KEPT THE REGISTRATION FEE TO A MINIMUM JUST TO COVER COSTS (TIMING AND SHIRT). THIS YEAR IF YOU REGISTER FOR THE EVENT, YOU WILL GET A T-SHIRT AS LONG AS YOU REGISTER BY NOVEMBER 10TH. YOU WILL NOT GET A CHIP TO RUN THE RACE UNLESS YOU REGISTER AND PAY THE $20 FEE. THERE WILL BE NO REGISTRATION AFTER NOVEMBER 10TH AND NO T-SHIRTS AVAILABLE. THIS IS A FUNDRAISING EVENT, AND WE WILL BE ASKING FOR DONATIONS FOR THE LOCAL CHARITY (EITHER THROUGH REGISTRATION OR ON RACE DAY).
PLEASE REGISTER EVERYONE WHO WILL BE PARTICIPATING, SO WE CAN PLAN THE EVENT ACCORDINGLY (I.E., KIDS FUN RUN HAS FINISHER MEDALS FOR ALL, SO WE NEED TO KNOW HOW MANY KIDS WILL BE THERE).
YOU MUST REGISTER BY NOVEMBER 10TH TO BE GUARANTEED A SHIRT.
