Dave Huffman Memorial 5K Race
The eighth annual Dave Huffman Memorial 5K Race is rapidly approaching. The
Race Committee has been very busy planning every detail. Race information will
be distributed with flyers, newspaper ads, and articles on the city's web page and
raceberryjam.com. Our goal this year is to have 400+ runners.
I have had conversations with Mike Wegler, Street Superintendent and Sgt. Peter
Anderley with the Carver County Sheriff's office. We are going through all the
safety details as they relate to the race route, street closures, cone and sign
replacement, and we will be meeting again next week.
This year's race will again feature the Kid's Fun Run. The kid's race start time will
be at 9:45 a.m. in order to help the flow of the event. The kid's run is free and each
participant will receive a medal and a goody bag. Our goal is to have 100+ kids
parti ci pate.
There is still much to do. I would liketo acknowledge the members of the Race
Committee for their contributions and for sharing the workload. I look forward to
providing another quality community event for the residents of Chanhassen and
surrounding communities.
The City 01 Chanhassen . A growing community with clean lakes, quality schools, a charming downtown, thriving businesses, winding trails, and beautiful parks. A great place to live, work, and play.
