Why should I participate in Healthy Hometown’s 5K/1K event?

Our goal is to have as many Clinton County residents, including children, to participate in our community event. We want to raise as much funds as possible to get new playground equipment for our park. This is something that doesn’t affect a small number of residents but the entire county will benefit from this. This will be in conjunction with our Health Fair.

Event Information:

Saturday, May 2nd 2015

Registration Begins at 8:00 AM

Registration fee $10.00

5K Begin at 9:00 AM

First 1K event starts at 10:15 am

*Make checks payable to Healthy Hometown Activity Fund*

(100 percent of event proceeds will be used toward the purchase of playground equipment for Mt. View Park.)

T-shirts will be awarded to each participant, to ensure you get the correct size turn registration forms in as soon as possible.
