Breast Cancer
Awareness 5K Run/Walk
(Greenville) July 7 - The Breast Cancer Awareness 5K run/walk, which is
part of the Darke County Wellness Challenge, will take place on
Saturday, July 30, 2016 at the Annie Oakley statue in downtown
Greenville. The kids run will begin at 8:00 a.m. with the 5K run/walk
following at 8:30 a.m.
We are excited to bring back the “Pink Mile”, a 1-mile walk led by men
representing various community organizations and businesses. The walk
will start at approximately 9:45 am following the 5K run/walk event.
The event is a great opportunity to raise public awareness of breast
cancer while offering support for men and women who have been diagnosed
with cancer. The race proceeds benefit individuals in the Darke County
community who need mammograms, ultrasounds, wigs, prosthesis,
lymphedema services and other supplies to help aid in their treatment
and care.
To guarantee a custom tech shirt, race registration forms must be
received by July 15th. Early registration is $25 and race day
registration is $30. Early registration for the kids run with tech
shirt is $12 and $5 with no shirt. Awards and post race activities will
take place at Dave Knapp at approximately 11:30 a.m.
All registered participants over the age of 18 will be eligible to win
a free car from Dave Knapp Ford. Participants must be present to win.
Race packet pick up will be available for pre-registered participants
on Friday, July 29th from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at First
Congregational Christian Church Recreational Center. Race day pick up
will begin at 6:30 a.m. at the same location.
