From the Organizer

STOMP OUT THE STIGMA is all about raising awareness of mental wellness and eliminating the stigma surrounding mental illness.  Join us in the fastest, flat 5k route in the area or a nice 1 mile race around Waughop Lake.  Parking will be easy at the Pierce College Fort Steilacoom campus with a short walk down a trail to Fort Steilacoom Park.  The 5k race starts by the lake where you will fly through a flat course at Fort Steilacoom Park and finish back at the entrance of the lake. The 1mile race starts at the entrance of Waughop Lake and takes you on a scenic lap around the lake.  Both routes are mostly paved with a short area that is dirt/gravel. This 5k race is chip timed.  The entry includes a race shirt if you register by 7/21.  Finishing medals will be given to the first 200 finishers.  Don't miss the chance to be a part of this great event!

Sorry… no strollers or dogs at the event because of the insurance restrictions.
