5K Road Race/Walk for Milford Special Olympic Programs

Registration will begin at 8 a.m. at the Milford High Gym Parking Lot.  The Kids Fun Run for ages 10 and under will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the 8th Annual Road Race and Walk will begin at 9 a.m. Refreshments will be provided for all participants and there will be water stops along the race route.  Awards will be presented to top Male and Female participants in 7 divisions at approximately 10:15 a.m.  The Tri-Valley Front Runners will provide timing for the event.  You can register and get any further information on our website at http://www.milford.ma.us/mcs/roadrace.html

With the continued growth of our local programs, we now have sixteen Special Olympic teams and over 120 Special Olympic Athletes from seventeen towns in the Milford Area.  All money raised will directly benefit the programs by going towards uniforms, equipment, transportation, games fees, annual awards banquet, etc.   

If you would like to help in other ways, we are looking for sponsors, and volunteers to help make our fifth annual race a success.  If you are interested in registering or need further information please contact Jennifer Walsh at (508) 478-1119.  You may also find this information on our website at www.milford.ma.us/mcs.
