Heritage Festival 5 Mile RESULTS
Turnout for this years' Spring Track Series was outstanding. We saw students from local high school track teams, parents with their elementary and middle school children, and FARC regulars. Thanks to everyone who came out, and to Allen Vaughan for leading the event.
The FARC Summer Cross Country Series starts July 9th at 6:30 PM and runs every Thursday for 5 weeks. The race is a cross country 5k at Pratt Park. All ages and abilites welcome. Please see the calendar page for more details.
We need to get a feel in the level of interest for a CPR class. We need to have a minimum of 5 people signed up, and cost is $35 per person. The dates we can do it are Monday July 20th from 7-9 PM, and/or Monday August 3rd from 7-9 PM. If you are interested in attending the CPR class, please RSVP (Edit: by July 7th for the July 20th class) Janice Lasker laskfam@gmail.com and let her know that you'd like to attend, and which date you could make it. Thanks!
