DEVON PUBLIC LIBRARY FUN RUN
The Friends of the Devon Library Association are holding their 2nd Annual Fun Run to raise funds and community awareness for the Devon Public Library. Funds raised financially support special library projects, programming and increase the library collection, as well as provide any financial assistance to the Town for the expansion, improvement, or replacement of the current library.
The Run will be distances of approximately 1k (kids under 12), 2.5k and 5k utilizing trails and paths along the beautiful river valley in Voyageur Park. With the exception of a few hills, the Friends are keeping the "fun" in Fun Run.
For this year's event, the Friends are excited to be able to award prizes for individual fundraising efforts. Participants who raise a minimum of $50 will have their name entered into a draw for one of the following prizes, which have been generously donated:
Family 10-Punch Pass to the Devon Pool valued at $191 (Town of Devon)
Float Down the River for 2 Adults & 2 Children valued at $94.50 (River Lifestyle Co.)
Ask your family & friends to donate, through your registration, and you could win! Prize draws will take place at the completion of the event.
