Description
The Grant County Rescue Mission is excited to announce that this year’s Turkey Day 5K will be ran through the campus of Indiana Wesleyan University. The University is graciously allowing us to use Troyer Fieldhouse for registration, snacks, restrooms and gathering before the race. The facility also allows us to run this event rain, snow or shine in the 6 lane 200 meter track inside if necessary.
The Indiana Wesleyan campus provides a beautiful backdrop for running/walking with winding paths and vibrant landscaping. The course will take participants by Wildcat Stadium, Phillippe Performing Arts Center, Chapel Auditorium, Jackson Library and beautiful Williams Prayer Chapel before returning back to Troyer Fieldhouse for the finish. Another Grant County Rescue Mission partner, College Wesleyan Church will be home to the halfway point offering water and restrooms to any who may need it.
We are so thankful for the willingness of Indiana Wesleyan University to offer us this opportunity. We are excited to offer this to you as well. Your contributions make all the difference in helping those who are struggling in our community. This event raises money, food and awareness to the mission of the Grant County Rescue Mission’s food ministry. The Grant County Rescue Mission operates several facilities throughout Grant County that offer nutritional support. So far this year GCRM has served almost 50,000 meals! Please join GCRM in the ongoing effort of helping people discover life-change by becoming a sponsor of the Turkey Day 5K, aka the “Wildcat Wobble”!
