From the Organizer
Join us for our first 5k on the hills of the Heucks Retreat community! Runners and walkers will start and end at Heucks Retreat Baptist Church. All participants will receive a race t-shirt and post-race refreshments. Chipped timing will be done by MS Race Timing. It will for sure be a run to remember! All proceeds will go to Heucks Students for their camp and outreach ministries.
