Little River Elementary Hosts 5K To Benefit St. Jude Hospital

Sign up for the Woodstock-Towne Lake Patch newsletter!

This is the year to do something healthy for yourself while helping others.

In the words of Danny Thomas, former actor and founder of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, “Someday, God willing, we are going to beat all the odds and make childhood cancer a thing of the past.”

Little River Elementary PTA embraces this dream. Join them in support of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by registering for their first ever Run The River 5K Run/Walk and Fun Run.

The event will kick off at 8 a.m. Saturday, March 7 at the school, located at 3170 Trickum Road in Woodstock.

Not a runner? Sign up for the Fun Run, which is perfect for kids, families and all abilities. It is less than a mile and you can walk, wheel or run your way around the track! Early registration ends Feb. 28, so act quickly, you won’t want to miss out. For more information, go to www.LREPTA.org or register at www.active.com.

All participants who pre-register will receive a free T-shirt and goodie bag filled with coupons and goodies from our local sponsors.

Want to be a local sponsor? Little River PTA is offering corporate sponsors a fabulous opportunity while supporting a great cause. There are several ways in which your company can support this event for minimal cost.
