The Shack Quack 5k Run/Walk

The Shack Neighborhood House is hosting a 5k run/walk to benefit the Shack building and its many programs. This 5k is designed to bring our little community together in a fun and healthy way! Please consider joining us on March 25th at Edith Barill Park in Star City for a morning of music, face painting, and friendship!

The race itself will take place on the Rail Trail beside the park at 9am and head north on the trail towards PA. There will be a turnaround point and water station at the 1.5mi mark, and the second half of the race will be going back in the direction of the start line.
