Our host for this race is the Big Fork Community Center. There is no fee to this run, we only ask for a donation to the Community Center. This run is actually one of their biggest fund raisers of the year. Mr. Hayward opens up and makes sure everything is ready for the runners. He has a hot wood stove, hot coffee, and his wife bakes cookies afterwards for everyone. So please, please show the community your appreciation and donate what you can. Thank you very much. |
