Gobble Gobble 5K Road Race

By participating in this road race, you will be helping to provide vital funds for the Center's Recreational Program. This unfunded program offers program members with the opportunity to participate in a sporting event such as bowling, track & field, fishing or as a team member of one of the three softball teams. This past year the Center added a third softball team to its roster, increasing the demand for funds needed to send all three teams to the State Games. This unfunded program is constantly growing both in sports offered and the number of program members that wish to participate. With you help, we can support this growth.
