We are celebrating National Best Friends Day a little early this year, so grab your Buddies and head over to Rock Creek Park in Dawsonville. On March 4th you'll have a chance to run as a team with your best friend (or friends) by participating in the Grab Your Squad Jog 5K.  Great race shirt, everyone runs as a team and we'll have awards for the top 3 fastest all men's team, all women's team, mixed teams, and a bunch of others.  It's dog friendly so you can bring your pooch.  We'll have music, finish line food, and loads of great stuff will be waiting for you after you finish a super fast 5K course.
