We are Back!!! after a couple of years off we are looking forward to seeing everyone light up the night on September 10th. Location and time is the same and that you all are familiar with.

In addition, to the 5k you all know and love we have added a kids fun run. We LOVE seeing all the families out there so we thought why not have the kids participate. We are working out the details but this will be an short run through Pottawatomie and at the we will put together a fun obstacle course for those 10yrs and younger.
