Combined efforts to bring a run and walk on July 27

Thursday, July 18, 2013

The Mental Health America of Putnam County and DePauw University Cross Country Team are sponsoring a 4-mile run and a 2-mile walk at 8 a.m. July 27, at DePauw Nature Park, which is about one mile west of the Greencastle Square on West Walnut Street.

Pre-registration will be $20. Children under 10 are free.

Both the 4-mile run and the 2-mile walk are on packed stone trails in a wooded area. One route will be along the Big Walnut Creek and the other around the rim of the old stone quarry. Both courses will have some challenging hills. Restrooms are available.

There will be awards for men and women in both events (runners & walkers) for first and second place winners plus age group awards in both events.

All proceeds go to support the Mental Health America Programs provided in Putnam County.

There will be a drawing for prizes and gift certificates.
