Dear Runners and Walkers:
We would like to extend an invitation to you to the sixth annual Eastern Ottawa Young Life 5K and Fun Run. The previous five years have been a great success, each year being able to raise money to help kids go to Young Life Camps. Thank you to all who helped make this possible. We will be meeting at the athletic stadium next to the Baldwin Street Middle School for a race that we hope will again bring out racers and their families to help raise money that will send middle school and high school kids to Young Life camps this summer. Please know that all proceeds will go towards scholarships for kids in our area going on Young Life camping trips.
The day starts off with a fun run on the track. The fun run will be a quarter-mile run around the track for runners 8 and under beginning at 8:15 AM. At 8:45, the 5K run/walk will begin. Official times for the 5K runners will be posted online. Times for the 5K walkers and all fun run participants will be read aloud as they cross the finish.
We again plan on having plenty of volunteers to make it a great experience for everyone. Please join us as we seek to help teenagers have “the best week of their lives” at Young Life camps.
