Now that the Indoor Marathon relay events are over, you’re just itching to get back to the Pettit for a run, aren’t you? I know we are! We’re looking forward to the Stride & Glide at the Pettit, and this year they’ve added an outdoor 5k next door at State Fair. Read on for more information about the events:
Stride & Glide at the Pettit
IndependenceFirst is hosting our third annual Stride & Glide on March 3, adding an outdoor 5K at Wisconsin State Fair Park to our indoor family-friendly fun run/walk/ice skating event at the Pettit National Ice Center. Both options support the services and advocacy that IndependenceFirst provides for people with disabilities.
You can participate as an individual or with a team! Participants can pay a fee or raise pledges to support IndependenceFirst. All participants receive a commemorative long-sleeved t-shirt, or a cool, moisture-wicking tech shirt may be substituted for only $10 more.
Registration fee: minimum pledge or contribution of $25 for adults (ages 12+) before Feb. 17, 2012 ($30 after Feb. 17) or $15 for youth (ages 4-11). Kids 3 and under are free (strollers welcome at the indoor portion of the event).
