From the Organizer

The LaChute Road Runners Club welcomes you to experience a scenic 5K cross-country course through trails, roads, and fields, guided by the powerful symbolism of the lighthouse as a beacon of HOPE and the bridge as a connection to education and support.

There is a 2 Mile Fun Run/Walk option along the scenic 5K cross-country course to encourage family participation.
