Spring Eggstravaganza and 5K Bunny Run

Saturday, April 13, join us at 8am at Doughboy Stadium for the 5K Bunny Fun Run, the third race in the five-race 5K Fun Run Series. Each race earns participants one part of a five-piece “puzzle” medal set. The cost is $15 per race for adults and $10 for kids 5 and younger. (Mom and Dad can run with kids for free, or kids can run with parents free, no medal will be issues for participants who do not register. Courses are stroller friendly.)
