The first 5K Prediction Run/Walk was held in July of 2005. The event, which is held at 9:00AM on the last Saturday of July, has grown by bits and pieces. The event is held at Garlo Heritage Nature Preserve and is a 5K flat course over grass and trails through the scenic nature preserve. Participants predict their final time and may run and or walk. The first 20 participants who predict their time closest to the actual finish time receive an award. No watches are permitted during the event. Registration is free but donations are accepted. A T-shirt can be received for a $10 donation. In 2011, following the 5K run, the addition of a Country Cruise Car Show was added from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM and has a $10 registration fee. Activities include a 50/50 drawing, food, music and more. The top 10 awards conclude the event at 3:00 PM. For more information about the Prediction Run, contact Dan Mason at 419-618-6536. Contact Gary Mason at 419-937-2865 for information about the car show. All proceeds go to The Friends of the Seneca County Park District. |
