Join the annual Run For The Springs 5K at Carney Island Park, a community-driven event dedicated to supporting local environmental health and septic system maintenance. On February 22nd, runners and fitness enthusiasts are invited to lace up their best running shoes and participate in this meaningful race that combines fitness with community support.
Participants who register by January 17th are guaranteed an official race t-shirt, making early registration both rewarding and practical. The event offers a $30 registration fee, providing an affordable opportunity for individuals to contribute to a significant local cause. By participating, runners directly support grant funding that assists Marion County residents and businesses in obtaining critical septic tank pump-outs, inspections, and repair permit rebates.
In a festive nod to the Valentine’s season, event organizers encourage runners and spectators to wear red, pink, or white, adding a playful and colorful dimension to the race. The event kicks off promptly at 8:00 AM, promising an energetic and community-focused morning at Carney Island Park.
More than just a race, this event represents a commitment to environmental stewardship and local community support. Participants will not only enjoy a healthy, engaging morning of fitness but also contribute to important environmental maintenance efforts in Marion County.
