Walk and race for education

Posted on October 15, 2009 by Staff

Organizers are celebrating the “Lucky 13th” year of the annual Walk and Race for Education on Oct. 17 to support the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. The walk concludes with a carnival on the grounds of the Lincoln Center.

To donate for a student or school online, visit the foundation website at www2.chccs.k12.nc.us/psf

Walk festivities begin at 2:30 p.m. and the walkers start at 3 p.m. from McCorkle Place on the UNC campus. There is no registration for the walk; everyone is welcome.

Shuttles will run from Culbreth and Phillips middle schools and then back from the Lincoln Center to the schools and McCorkle Place. Parking is discouraged at the Lincoln Center and will be curtailed on Merritt Mill Road.

The walk will be preceded by the Race for Education, which begins at 9 a.m. at McCorkle Place and winds through the UNC campus. Runners can register at Fleet Feet Sports in Carr Mill Mall or by going to SPORToften.com

Registration is also available on Saturday morning before the race begins.
