Donate a food item on Race Day! In order to do all we can to help the students in our district, we would like to offer the opportunity to bring a food item on race day that can be donated to this program. A list of suggested food items that can be donated is listed on the program’s website: http://www.sasd.k12.pa.us/BackpackInitiative.aspx
Keeping with previous traditions, the 5K course is fast, certified, and FLAT! The 5K race will begin at the Shaler EMS building, loop along Little Pine Creek Road, and end uphill at Kiwanis Park’s baseball field between two hot air balloons (weather permitting). Timing is being done by Runner's High and both the runners and walkers will start together.
