The Mount Zion 3 Mile Fun Run/Walk

The Mount Zion Lutheran Church is sponsoring a 3 mile fun run/walk! Please join us for a wonderful afternoon to benefit the Churchtown group home of The Arc of Cumberland & Perry Counties (CPARC)!

The event will consist of a 3 mile fun run/walk that will start in the parking lot of the Mount Zion Lutheran Church and continue along back roads in a rural setting. Along the way, there will be five check points with water and people to assist if there are any problems.

We anticipate that runners will finish in less than an hour, but check points will remain open for walkers. There will be transport back to the church if anyone cannot finish the course. There will also be a sweep vehicle following behind the last participant.

This event will be tailored to the casual runners, runners who would like to their times, and walkers who would like to enjoy some fresh air in the afternoon.

There will be light refreshments at the finish area, and at 4 pm, everyone is invited to join us for our monthly Community Dinner. The menu will be hamburgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, baked beans, potato chips, desserts, and beverages. Please bring a lawn chair!

In case of rain, the dinner will be moved inside. The run/walk will be held rain or shine!

The event will be limited to 100 participants.
