DeBerry Foundation 5K Run & Walk Saturday

Published: May 16, 2008, 12:04 am, by admin

Don’t forget about a great event for a great cause this weekend.

On Saturday afternoon at 3, the Fisher DeBerry 5K Run and Walk will be held – rain or shine – at America the Beautiful Park. Coach DeBerry will be there along with special guest Rudy Ruettiger – the famous Notre Dame walk-on who inspired the movie Rudy. Coach DeBerry and Rudy will present medals to the top three finishers in each race and age category.

The registration fee for adults is $20 before 6 p.m. Friday and $25 the day of the race. The fee for children and students is $15 before 6 p.m. Friday and $20 the day of the race. Each participant will receive a t-shirt, and all registrants will be eligible to win raffle prizes and get free tickets to a Colorado Springs Sky Sox game. Food from Chick-fil-A will be provided.

The event benefits the Colorado Springs FCA, Santa’s Workshop and Young Lives.

    Didn’t you mean at 1pm? And the website says Washburn Field, not
    America the Beautiful park. Man am I confused !

      John,

      Somehow you’re looking at a post I did about the 2008 run. Not sure how you got to that one.

      Here’s a post I did about this year’s run (http://gazetteafasports.freedomblogging.com/2009/05/12/footballs-academic-performance-and-fisher/1905/). It says Washburn Field in it.
