We received the following press release from Dairy Discovery

 

We are hoofin’ it for Dairy Discovery, a nonprofit focused on providing a personal connection to your food. We are teaching the truth in agriculture and healthy nutrition and no better way to teach about health and nutrition than by getting people to moo’ve their dairy airs.

Join us on May 8th for races through our dairy farm and property trails and local roads. There will be both a 5k and 15k option. All races will begin at 8:30 am, with staggered starts, to help avoid crowding. We are grateful to have Epic Timing here to assist in the packets and timing of both races. Not only will you have a chance to compete with other runners again, but you will also get the best prize of all at the end. Healthy, nutritional chocolate milk to refuel your body after a hearty race, along with other amazing snacks.

Prizes will be available for the top 2 runners in the 18 & under, 19-34, 35-50, and 50 and up age groups. Prizes will include gifts from our very own Specialty Shop and a plush Dairy Discovery cow for 1st place winners.

5k- $30 Registration is until April 24th at midnight. After that, registration will be $40 and will not include a t-shirt.

15k- $40 Registration is until April 24th at midnight. After that, registration will be $50 and will not include a t-shirt.

  • Strollers are accepted for the 5k only, HOWEVER, the terrain through the fields can be bumpy and rough.
