Dave Huffman Memorial 5K Race
DATE:
SUBJ:
The tenth 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, signs, posters, and articles on the city's
web page and raceberryjam.com. Our goal this year is to rebound from our cold and
rainy event last year and have 350+ runners.
I have had conversations with Mike Wegler, Street Superintendent and Lt. Jim
Olson of the Carver County Sheriff's office. We are going through all the safety
details as they relate to the race route, street closures, and cone and sign placement.
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
participate.
There is still much to do. I would like to 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.
