Join us for this family-friendly race sponsored by Village Books and Fairhaven Runners!
Participants will enjoy a combination road-trail course, with slight grades and beautiful scenery. The race will feature age-group awards and door prizes. There will also be a free Kids’ ½-Mile Fun Run at 8:45 am before the 5K, beginning on the Village Green. Every child in the 1/2 mile race will receive a coupon for a free ice cream cone!

All proceeds from this 5K event will benefit the Whatcom Literacy Council. Last year, the event raised over $2000 for the organization.
After the race, there will be live music, good company, good food, awards and a drawing for random prizes, all on the Village Green. This 13th annual race also marks the celebration of Village Books’ 32nd anniversary, Fairhaven Runners and Walkers’ 13th anniversary and Whatcom Literacy Council’s 34th anniversary.
