From the organizer

We are excited to see you all on the course for our 13th annual Firehouse 5K! Over the past eleven years, we have raised over $31,000 for a variety of charities centering around autism support and education. This year, you can run the race alongside local firefighters and many supporters in this community. The course remains the same as previous years, a 3.1-mile out-and-back course starting and finishing at the firehouse. If running isn't really your thing, you're welcome to participate in a fun 2-mile walk. Immediately after the race, refreshments, and an award ceremony will follow.

And don’t forget — in addition to your race T-shirt, just like last year, the first 200 sponsors and/or race participants will receive our exclusive Firehouse 5K Finisher Medal!
