Welcome to the 9th (almost) annual Fowler Fireworks Frenzy! We hope to see you at beautiful Fowler Park, Fowler IN, on July 4th, at 8:00 AM! You may register online at our website or by mailing a form to Diane Costello, 1005 E 10th ST, Fowler, IN 47944. We are happy to announce that we are once again partnering with Fowler Rotary, which means that ALL registrants may enjoy a Fowler Rotary Pancake breakfast after the race for FREE! Your ticket of admission is your race bib! Our course is the same "out & back" as all the previous years. Check out the map.

This event is hosted by Fowler Community Center, who is also our beneficiary. This year we are getting very specific as to where our proceeds will go. Many of our Fowler and Benton County seniors depend on Area IV to transport them to Lafayette/West Lafayette for medical appointments and often time shopping. Prices for this service (like so many other things) have recently increased from $20 to $40/round trip, which can make a significant dent in the budget of a person on a limited fixed income. The Fowler Community is in the process of establishing a TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT FUND to cover 25% of these transportation costs.

As we set the cost for each event we host, we try to keep our registration fees as family-friendly as possible, which is getting more difficulty with each event we host. As a result of that, we have increased our registration fee to $27 this year (which of course includes your shirt) and $10 for a shirt ordered without registration. (Other expenses include insurance, awards, postage, and the electronic timing of the results by Race Time.) If you would like to "pad" your registration with a couple extra dollars, those extra dollars will be designated entirely to the TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT FUND.

Please note: Our liability insurance does not allow dogs (other than certified service animals) on the 5K course!
