Ready. Set. Grow! Fun Run
Ready. Set. Grow! Fun Run is a fun event that will help to raise awareness about Keep Tennessee Beautiful, and our efforts to educate and rally Tennesseans on litter prevention, recycling, and beautification in their communities. All proceeds from this event will go to our University of Memphis/KTnB Foundation which will go towards scholarships for students planning to study in the environmental conservation field and to community environmental education grants.
Registration and race packet pick-up will begin at 7:00 a.m. the day of the race. Race will begin at 9 a.m., and we will have a celebration following the race with vendors at the venue.
Registration fee now is $25, and $10 for ages 12 and under. All ages are welcome to this event! You can run or walk in this race. We want to promote not only a healthy lifestyle for Tennesseans, but also encourage us to have a healthy state too!
This year we've decided to switch it up...
We will have a fun hike/run through the woods adjacent to International Harvester Managerial Park. Have fun running or walking this short hike through the woods at International Harvester Managerial Park. You will be rewarded with a free beer from Sierra Nevada for your troubles once you finish. First, second, and third place medals will be rewarded to the top three males and females during our awards ceremony at the close of the races.
Kids will then be allowed to compete in the Fun Run Around the Lake, which is a less demanding run around the beautiful lake at International Harverster Managerial Park. Kids can take a fun lap around the lake at International Harvester Managerial Park. It will start about 9:15 am. Winners (first, second and third place boy and girl) will be awarded medals during our awards ceremony. All kids can play in our bouncy house, receive a balloon from the balloon artist, and enjoy the food truck during this festive event.
Each event will have winner for first place.
We also will have a bouncy house, music, balloon artist and food truck for great family entertainment, as well as Trashsquatch from Nobody Trashes Tennessee!
