"Red, Right, Return" at a later date
New Date: TBD
Hello all,
We are eager to host the 5k and 1 mile run/walk, but the safety of our participants and volunteers is important to us. At this time we are choosing to not only adhere to the safety guidelines put in place by our state government, but to also use this time to focus on the current threat of COVID-19.
Thank you!
