$10 cash or check made out to OCABC for the Fun Run/Walk. If you know that you would like an event t-shirt please email Coach Adams at badams@oglethorpe.k12.ga.us to help our vendor know how many to make ahead of time. This does not guarantee a shirt, but it increases the likelihood of not running out and decreases the length of the line.
MS Boys 2 Mile 9:30
MS Girls 2 Mile 10:00
JV race has been combined with varsity. Runners entered in the JV race will be rolled into the varsity race.
Medals handed out at the finish line and trophies for the top 2 teams as soon as results are available for Varsity and MS only. No medals or trophies for the JV.
The site is a course that brings together small and long hills with flats and long straight stretches among the trees and in the open all on grass with no hard surfaces. The course will give middle and high school coaches and runners a good idea of where they are at in preparation for their respective State meets. If coaches want a flat PR course this is not it. If coaches want a true test to gauge where their runners are it is perfect.
Ricardo's Taco Truck will have breakfast burritos and empanadas along with tacos for lunch, a t-shirt vendor will also be on site with event and team shirts, and Travelin Tom's coffee truck and Kona Ice with our concession stand open with candy, sodas, chips, and Powerade. Concession stand is cash only. Vendors accept cards.
