ORCMA Spring Classic 5K & FunRun

🌼 Spring Classic 5K & Fun Run Fundraiser

Join the Oak Ridge Civic Music Association for our 2nd annual Spring Fun Run at A.K. Bissell Park! Move at your own pace—run, walk, or stroll—while enjoying uplifting springtime classical music along the way. Proceeds will support ORCMA's youth programs, including our Free Family Concert and Adolf Summer Strings Program. Come in your favorite costume and make it a festive celebration!

🏃‍♂️ Course Description

• Route: Course will consist of three 1.1 mile loops (slightly over 3.2 miles) in and around Bissell Park Crushed Limestone and paved pathway.
• Fun Run: Fun Run will be one loop.
• Parking: Parking is at the Civic Center next to the park or at the Public Library.
• Facilities: There are restrooms inside the Civic Center and portables outside.

Advice is to arrive early since there is a basketball league at the Rec. Center as well as the Flea Market across the turnpike in the high school parking lot.
