Hello everybody.          I am Gabriel and I am proud and happy to introduce to you my very first 5 K run/ walk.  This race was inspired by the struggles that mother faced with a horrific disease called diabetes. My mother was an amazing woman who had taken care of herself and health the best way that she could while she was living with this disease.  However, sadly she died last year August of 2024   due to diabetic complications. This was very traumatic for our family.         I’ve personally seen how hard it was for my mother to be able to afford her diabetic medicine when she really needed it, even with the  insurance that she had . Having to pay for medicine while Paying bills and taking care of other household necessities can all be a lot to anybody.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. This race is an opportunity to get rid of surplus shirts and medals.  You will receive a medal, and shirt from a previous race but it'll be new, unawarded stock.  The race will be timed and a refreshment will be given to you but I don't want to spoil your dinner! We will have the race at Columbia Park. Course will be totally in the park with about 3-1 mile loops. Prices are $5 & $10.  If you choose that race you'll get no shirt and I'll donate it to Woody's Home for Veterans.

This event is being postponed until a day when the weather will be a bit cooler!
