This 5k run/walk benefits the Saint Anne’s Guild women's group at St. Joseph the Worker Catholic Church. This group hosts several youth and family events throughout the year. Additionally, half of the proceeds from the run will go to LifeHouse Crisis Pregnancy Center in Springfield, MO. The course will leave the St. Joseph the Worker’s rear parking lot off Bluff Drive and head west across NN Hwy. The route passes Ozark High School then jumps onto the City of Ozark's paved trail system and takes runners through the tunnel under Jackson Street. The course takes hard right and up to the turn around point in front of First Baptist Ozark. It's back the way you came including that fun uphill to the finish line back at St. Joseph the Worker. We will have hot coffee and pancakes (Thanks to our Knights of Columbus) waiting for you back in our Parish Hall. This year we will incorporate a COSTUME CONTEST as the race day falls on All Hallows Eve! We will have a prize for the best Saint Costume since All Saints Day follows All Hallows Eve. And for the best Halloween Costume - super hero theme this year!! So, join us for the run and a little extra costume fun! Winners must run in their costumes! What is All Saints Day?
