We recommend all walkers stay in the middle of the pack and those with strollers or leashed dogs at the back to allow runners the space they need for a good run without obstacles. Thank you.
Dogs are welcome to join the fun; please make sure they are not aggressive, are current on their vaccinations, and are child/dog friendly. ALL DOGS MUST BE ON LEASH AT ALL TIMES AND WILL BE POSITIONED AT THE BACK OF THE STARTING PACK. PRIZE BREAKDOWN: 1st, 2nd & 3rd place finishers will receive a trophy. All participants will receive running medals.
CV Days Parade begins at 9 am
Thank you for your support!
