Happy Tails 5k Run/ Walk

New Stanton UPS will be hosting a 5k Run/ Walk May 13th, 2023. For anyone that has participated in past 5k events at UPS, for 2023 the 5k has a new route because of an ongoing construction project on Westinghouse Rd. and Glen Fox Rd. The new route will start and end in the UPS employee parking lot. Registration and packet pickup will be in the UPS employee parking lot at 521 N. Center Ave. New Stanton, PA 15672 starting at 7am. The race start will be at 8am. The race starting line will be in the employee parking lot and will go out Ups Dr., right onto N. Center Ave., right onto Broadview Rd. almost all the way to the stop sign at Borough Line Road to turn around and come back to the starting/ finish line in the UPS employee parking lot. There will be a water station you will pass twice during the race, a little over the .5 mile mark, and then on the way back around 2.5 miles. This event benefits animal rescue. Any animal supply donations you would like to bring for the animals in rescue waiting to be adopted can be dropped off at the car show. Please join us for the Custom Car Show and refreshments after the race. There will be concessions, raffle drawings, and a DJ. Bring the whole family!!
