Description
Join Metuchen Milers Running Club for our special charity walk/run for 13 miles, "Community Give Back Walk / Run" on Saturday, April 27th, 7:00AM on the Greenway to benefit the First Presbyterian Church of Metuchen Food Pantry. Cost of admission is donating food for the food pantry (see list of acceptable food items below). You can bring the food on the day of the event. We will have food collection bins at the start of the race. Our goal is to collect 1,000 food items. This is a "do what you can" event. Complete as many miles as possible. The important thing is supporting the community and those in need of food. If you can't join us, we have bins for food drop off at Runner's High (454 Main Street, Metuchen, NJ) and Beans & Bread (660 Middlesex Avenue, Metuchen, NJ) during their normal business hours from Sunday, April 21st until Saturday, April 27th. You can also drop off food donations the day of the walk/run starting at 7am at the Greenway. Questions? Contact metuchenmilersrunningclub@gmail.com.
