Covid 19: We are postponing our "got grit" event
New Date: June 2021
As we’re sure you’re already aware, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a need for social distancing to help prevent the spread. For this reason, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone our "got grit" Color 5K Run/Walk. While we know this is disappointing, we hope you understand this is a necessary step to help keep each other safe in these unprecedented times.
We have a tentative re-scheduled for June 2021. Stay safe, and we’ll be in touch with more information soon.
