Run for the Runners!
Support Concord-Carlisle High School's Track and Cross-Country Teams by entering the First Annual Concord-Carlisle Cross Country Run for the Runners. The race will be held on the high school's challenging 2.7 mile cross-country course at noon on Sunday, March 28th. This fund-raising event is organized by the Friends of Concord-Carlisle Cross-Country and proceeds will be used for finishing line equipment that cannot be funded out of the already very challenged school budget. Individual entries cost $25. There are also a variety of options for group competition - for sibling, parent-child and 3- or 4-person teams. All runners must be at least 11 years old. Registration forms are available from David Storto at destorto at comcast.net or 978-287-5115. Late registration is possible up to 10:30am on race day. This is a USA Track & Field sanctioned event.
