EARTH DAY FAIR MAY 5, 2019
@ SKILLMAN PARK with Run with Rotary
Save the date for RUN WITH ROTARY 5k Run and 1-mile Ramble event on May 5 in Skillman Park (between Burnt Hill Road and Route 601). Get those sneakers on and get ready for a fun day. In past years, the race has attracted 900 runners and walkers and is a sanctioned Grand Prix event by the USA Track and Field organization. Return for a great family tradition or start a new one of your own. Run as an individual or with the whole family.

The morning Run With Rotary event will include music, kid-care for ages 4-8, Penn Medicine Princeton Health activities, MHS Drum Corps, Dance Factory performance, massage tables, Zumba class, 50/50 Raffle, kid’s activities, drone demos, and more.
