CHARITY PARTNER
We are excited to announce the local charity partner for this event is Save A Mom Rescue!!
Save a Mom (SAM) Pregnant Dog Rescue was started in October 2005 when our founder, Denise Jones, received a call from a local vet about a pregnant dog. She was found running in the park, having suffered horrible abuse, and not trusting anybody. The dog was named Sammie.
Save a Mom is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, no-kill rescue organization has provided pounds and shelters a safe place to send pregnant dogs, newly whelped litters, and orphaned pups. We specialize in helping momma dogs who require longer, more exhaustive care that most pounds and not all rescue shelters can meet.
Our priority is to save dogs from danger and euthanasia, ensure their well-being, and find them good homes. We are not breed-specific, and we do not pick or choose the dogs we rescue. As long as we have the needed space and funds, we rescue all dogs in need.

Rotary Club of Plain Township is also supporting this event! Please thank a volunteer on race day for their support!

Are strollers allowed? You are welcome to use a stroller for this event but it is not recommended due to uneven ground on the course and children in strollers can participate for free and do not need to register.
Is walking allowed? Yes!
Is the race dog friendly? No – we love dogs, but since this is a produce and vegetable farm USDA prohibits dogs on site.
