Bring Your Cheer Gear: We encourage everyone to bring their own seats and signs. Let’s make some noise and show our support as the runners take on the course through Merry Oaks!

This is a fantastic opportunity to come together as a community, show support for the runners, and enjoy a morning filled with fun, warmth, and neighborly love.
