We are excited to announce that the local charity for this event will be FieldHaven Feline Center.

It all started in 2003 with a barn and a handful of feral cats. Word got out that sisters Jann Flanagan and Joy Smith were on a mission to rescue cats. Operating out of a trailer located on a private horse ranch in a rural area of Lincoln, California, the sisters established “FieldHaven Feline Rescue,” a safe haven for local cats and kittens until they were adopted. Being on a ranch is one of the many things that makes FieldHaven unique.

By 2008, it was apparent the community’s needs were great and FieldHaven’s facilities were small. A campaign to raise funds to build a state-of-the-art cat center was launched and completed in 2011. The shelter facility was created in cooperation with the UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program; the innovative design is recognized worldwide as a model for improving the health, safety, and adoptability of rescued felines.

At FieldHaven, the cats roam freely in indoor/outdoor community rooms and individual suites.

It soon became clear that FieldHaven’s scope of services was expanding and it was becoming the “center” of all things feline in Lincoln and the surrounding communities. In 2013, the name was changed to “FieldHaven Feline Center” and a new, stronger mission statement was established to reflect the growth and knowledge acquired in the first ten years of service.

At FieldHaven, it isn’t just about adoptions. Our goal is to enhance the lives of cats and their owners and caregivers by offering programs to Lincoln and surrounding communities that fulfill their needs.

Absolutely!  We have been getting many inquiries about virtual participation and have integrated a virtual option into our regular registration.

Please feel free to register through the regular registration link above and you can either: 

1) Pick up packet during packet pickup or on the morning of the race, but run on your own (hint:  wine ticket is still good if you use this strategy)
