From the Organizer
Run like it's almost midnight in the Clinton County Who's the Fairest 5K Run/Walk! This event benefits the Clinton County Fair Pageant Programs and scholarships. Because it's about more than high heels and hairspray, each year we stress the importance of fitness, community and charity with this event. The race begins and ends at the Clinton County Fairgrounds. If you are not available to attend our race in person but you would still like to support our efforts...be a Sleeping Beauty/Beast and dream about our success or run remotely. Whether you join us on the morning of 7/12, sleep in, or just make a donation we sincerely appreciate you partnering with us.
