Morning Star Christian Fellowship is sponsoring a 4th annual 5K run/walk with all proceeds going to support local area homeless shelters and Transformation Life Center (TLC). Come join us on Saturday morning, November 2, 2024, for this challenging 5K run/walk (walkers are welcome!!!).

The course winds through the neighborhood between East Chester and Foxhall Streets, taking ‘advantage’ of hills on both sides of Clifton Avenue (the ‘backbone’ of the course), and passing twice through Hutton Park. A scenic view of the Catskills is included.

The event will have special awards and prizes. T-shirts will be given to the first 75 registrants. Entry fee is $20 with option for additional donations. Last minute event day registration can be done in person between 8:00 – 8:45 am.
