RACERS members discovered Stiggy’s Dogs, a 501(c)3 organization based in Howell Michigan, and the RACERS Rescue Run 5K was born! The 5K route is an out and back course to Jean Klock Park, with a start and finish on Graham Avenue near the corner of North Shore Drive in Benton Harbor. The route is stroller friendly, and post-race refreshments are available at the finish line. Overall male, female and canine finishers in both the run and walk division will receive individual awards. Medals go to male and female age group winners in the 5K and 5K Walk. Door prizes awarded to both random human and canine participants! The RACERS Rescue Run is a dog-friendly event! One dog per person. All dogs must wear ID tags, be on a leash (no flex leashes permitted), socialize well with other dogs, be current on rabies vaccinations, be at least six months of age, and not be in heat. Please clean up after your pet, throughout the event. Please include your dog when you register.
