The 3.1 mile walk/run will start at 11 a.m.  Parking is available in Lot G. Prizes for men’s and women's tops finishers and the team that raises the most will be awarded!

During the Tailgate Party and lunch immediately following the race, a student name will be selected to receive a $250 scholarship! To be eligible for the scholarship, students must be currently enrolled at MCC, must participate in the race and be present during the drawing. (Tickets for the Tailgate Party, including a hot buffet lunch, are not included in the price of the race and may be purchased separately for $8.)
