5K Rebel Run & Central 5K Coming Up

By  | 

 

    There are two fun 5K events coming soon to Central.  Both are family-friendly events benefitting local schools.  The 3rd Annual 5K Rebel Run is this Saturday, February 9th beginning at Central Private School at 8AM.  Runners and walkers of all ages are invited to participate in this 5K to raise money for Central Private School education projects.  Registration is $25 per person.  Forms are available at the Central Private front office, or you may arrive early to register on race day.  Turn to page 9 for the 5K map.
    On Saturday, February 23rd, Ochsner Health System is partnering with Central High Track and Cross Country to host the inaugural Ochsner-Central Community 5K.  Registration is $25 in advance or $30 on race day.  Proceeds will benefit CHS Track and Cross Country, as well as BREC-Central Parks trail improvements.  You can register online at www.CentralCommunity5K.com or in person on race day.  Registration includes a free shirt, but there is a limited number of shirts available, so register soon.  Race day registration will begin at the new Central Middle School at 7:30 AM, and the 5K begins at 8:30.  We hope to see a good turnout at both of these events to support our local schools’ efforts.
