About the Race

The 6TH Annual Granger Paths 5K Run/Walk and 1 Mile Family Run/Walk is a benefit to raise funds for the FIRST PHASE of the path system from Mary Frank and Northpoint schools to the Library!

Construction is due to begin in 2012.

COME OUT AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE PROJECT AND YOUR COMMUNITY

There will be great door prizes, neighbors to meet, and good music. 
Multiuse paths will allow you and your family to safely walk, run, and bike throughout your community. They will connect public facilities such as schools, the library, ball fields, and shopping areas to allow for a more intimate connection between neighborhoods and raise property values!
