The GPHS Athletic Booster Club brings back the tradition of a fun run during the Boatnik festivities on Saturday May 24th.   We are seeking runners to ensure the success of the event.  The “Grants Pass 5K Freedom Run” will kick-off the Memorial Day Parade as the participants run down 6th Street and end in Reinhart Volunteer Park.  The purpose of the 5K Run is to raise funds to pay off the debt that is owed on the Football Field, Softball and Track improvements that were made several years ago.

The fee for the 5K Run is $25.00, youth 18 and under is $17.00.  If you register prior to May 16, 2014 you will receive a race t-shirt.  You are highly encouraged to register online at www.GetMeRegistered.com/GP5KFR (look for “Search for Events” & put in race name). You may also register in person or mail your entry to Competitive Athletics, 105 NE 7th St., Grants Pass, OR  97526. A secured drop off box is located at Les Schwab, 320 Union Ave. Online registration is open thru May 22nd. Mail-in & Les Schwab drop off entries must be received by May 21st. In-person registration at Competitive Athletics is open until May 23rd at 5pm.  Entry forms can be picked up at the GPHS office.
