This weekend is the 2nd Annual "Planting HOPE in the 'Boro" 5K run, and everything has come together so well. Today, we had a fantastic volunteer group stop by to help us stuff the bags for the runners.
We got our t-shirts from The Very Idea and they look fantastic! We've also had about 61 people signed up as of today, and while that number isn't quite our goal of 250, it is still a good number, and we are very grateful for them. We also are very grateful for all of our prize donors this year.
With the economy still in a turn for the worse, we understand that businesses are low on funds, and that makes their generosity appreciated that much more. Without our business partners, we could not make the 5k a success.
So to all the runners and our business partners, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Running for HOPE!
It is now the month of June, and that means the 2nd Annual "Planting HOPE in the 'Boro" 5K run is only weeks away! Through the kindness of our runners and business partners, we are able to help so many people. By signing up to be a runner, you help us to "Plant HOPE in the 'Boro" too!
People run for different reasons. Some run because it makes them feel better, some run to stay in shape and some run to work off stress. These are all good reasons, but wouldn't it be great if you could run for HOPE? Wouldn't it be great to know that each slap of your shoe on the pavement is an action that reverberates throughout Murfreesboro to change a person's life?
When you register to run at Active.com, you are helping improve someone's life. By simply doing something you love, you are a part of the help that lifts a person out of the quagmire they may be stuck in, and sets them on a new path.
Registration is $20 in advance, and registration the day of the race is $25. Pre-registration guarantees a shirt from the event, and registering the day of cannot guarantee a shirt.
We would love for you to sign up to run in our 5K! It's okay if you don't think you could do the run, too! We have a Family Fun 1-Mile walk for those not up to running the 5K, and there will be fun activities, entertainment, and prizes too! Run for HOPE and know that you are making a difference!
