***New Addition to our Event: Do you want to help support our Rescue and participate in our event but live out of state or are busy? No Problem. We have decided to add a virtual portion to our 5K! Anyone interested in signing up registration will be open until 11:59pm on Friday September 13th, 2024. During your registration you will have the option to have a t shirt shipped to you which is included in the price or donate the cost of your t-shirt back to the rescue instead of us shipping you one. After you sign up you will have until Friday September 20th to submit your time to our email [email protected] and we will post the result on our Facebook page and website. We would ask that you include a link to your run on the app that you use or a photo of your time to complete. No medals will be awards for the Virtual 5K this year but we will email a certificate of competition with your time submitted.
