The Veggie Chase 5k and Kid’s Runs
Hey Everyone, I wanted to share a fun upcoming event with you. My boss is the director of The Veggie Chase 5K and Kids Runs and the 2010 event is slowly creeping closer. The last event was in October of 2008 and it was a HUGE hit! We had over 2,000 kids come out to participate. Myself, my husband and my parents were all there to volunteer to make the event great. (Check out the attached picture of Rich as Garlic!)
This year’s event is going to be on May 23rd at Hagen Park. There are events for kids that are just learning to walk and up. There is also a 5K for kids and adults. The fee is only $5 for kids 12 and under (and that includes a T-Shirt). There will be adults dressed up like Veggies for the kids to chase around in all the events.
We will have lots of great sponsors and contests (at 2008’s event I won a B.O.B. jogging stroller!) Soil Born Farm is the beneficiary and this event will be coinciding with Soil Born’s “Day on the Farm”.
Not only is this a great event for kids, but it’s also a great event for our community. If you don’t have plans on Saturday May 23rd, please register and come out and support not only the event, but our community.
