For Belle's Sake Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation will be hosting a 5K Run/Walk! Please join us to raise money and awareness for this awesome charity. http://www.forbellessake.org/

T-shirts will be given to everyone who registers before June 15! Goody bags will be given to the first 100 participants to register (additional bags may be available on a first come basis).
# WINNING
Medals will be awarded to the fastest three finishers in each of the following categories: Men, Women, Children (under 12). Winners will get special prizes as well!
Pets
Dogs ARE allowed at this event. Dogs must be leashed at all times and owners must clean up after their pets. Be aware that this will be a loud, crowded environment; always put your dog's emotional and mental health first! If they will be scared, anxious, or overly excited, it's probably best to leave them safely at home.
Cancellations and Refunds
Race will be held Saturday subject to:
a) Weather delays from lightening, sleet or blinding rain. Thirty minute delay policy after a lightning bolt.
b) If there are four 30 minute delays that extend the 5K race start time beyond 1 PM, the race will be canceled or rescheduled that day due to length of time volunteers are willing to stay at their post to keep the course safe.
In the rare occasion that the race is cancelled, refunds or deferrals will not be given. We will coordinate with you to pick up your t-shirts and goody bags. The proceeds from your registration fee will be issued to For Belle's Sake Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation.

We will have volunteers directing traffic to keep runners safe at intersections. Runners should not have to stop for traffic. (Most of our turns will be same-side of the road, so that you will not need to cross the roads often.) Most of the route is on sidewalks or paved trails. There will be one water station near the halfway point.
