YMCA Cherry Blossom 5K and Bubble Mile

It’s spring and a great time to get outside. We are excited to get back together and challenge you to run or walk through the rolling hills of Cherryville! Our race will begin and end at the First Presbyterian Church, located on the corner of Academy and Mountain Street before heading northeast towards Cherryville Elementary School. We will celebrate together at the finish line with music and snacks!

NEW! We are adding some BUBBLE-RIFIC fun to the 1 mile race! Come out with your kiddos – both young and young at heart – and run through bubbles at the beginning and end of the race! Bring some bubbles with you! We would love add as many bubbles and smiles to the race as possible.

Proceeds from the race will benefit the Cherryville Family YMCA Annual Giving Campaign which provides access to Y programs and services for individuals in need of financial assistance as well as sustaining the Y in Cherryville. The Y is passionate about community and what being part of a small group can do for your spirit. Learn more about the One Gaston. One Goal. Annual Giving Campaign
