This is a new FREE Kid's Dash (9 and under) where we'll crown a Fastest Kid in Town. All kids are welcomed but we do ask that you register your child so we have a good idea of our number of kids. The race will be a 75 yard dash. Parents can purchase a commemorative race T-shirt (Youth S, M, L or Adult sizes) for a $10 add on. The Kid's Dash will take place at 9:00am after the 5K has concluded.
