(race date estimated)Just Drive 5K Race Description
In memory of my sister Penny Verdeck, who was killed on April 26, 2015 by a distracted driver, we are hosting this family run/walk to honor her memory and to help raise awareness of the terrible tragedies resulting from distracted driving.
The event is being held on Sunday April 30th, starting at 9:00AM. Check in will begin at 7:30AM. Everyone is welcome. Runners, walkers, young, and not so young are all encouraged to come honor Penny and spread the word about distracted driving.
