A Colonial Road Runners Grand Prix Event
Description:
Calling all animal lovers! The 5th annual FURever Homes Race is coming up. This paw-some event to support local homeless pets in need will be on Saturday, June 15 at Jamestown High School. It is a Colonial Road Runners Grand Prix event and is for runners and walkers of all ages and fitness levels. There will be an 8k, 5k, and 1-mile Fun Run. All courses use the grounds of Jamestown High School, sections of Powhatan, Greenspring’s, and Capital Trail. There will be community vendors, music, food, family fun, raffles, and more!
