Our goal is to have over 175 walkers or runners participate. The walk/run is open to the college community and general public. Tickets are $18 per person for those who pre-register by September 22 and $23 for walk-ins. Check-in begins at 10 a.m. in Parking Lot G. The 3.1 mile walk/run will start at 11 a.m.  Prizes for men’s and women's top finishers and the team that raises the most will be awarded!

Student participants will be eligible to have their names included in a scholarship drawing—five student names will be selected to receive MCC scholarship awards totaling $4,000! To be eligible for the drawing, students must be currently enrolled at MCC and must participate in the race.

Tickets for the Tailgate Party and hot buffet lunch following the 5K are not included in the price of the race and may be purchased separately for $8.  The Tailgate Party, sponsored by the MCC Association and Sodexo, begins at 11:30 a.m. in the gym. The scholarship drawing and awards ceremony will be held at 12:30 p.m.
