From paulding.gov:

Paulding County Parks and Recreation is partnering with the Atlanta 2-day Walk for Breast Cancer and Paulding County Board of Education (Elementary PE Challenge) for the 10th Annual 5K Run/1 Mile Walk for Fun and Health.

This year’s event will be on Saturday, September 12 at White Oak Park. Sign in begins at 7:30 am with the I mile walk beginning at 8:00am and the 5k Run will begin at 8:30am. All participants that are preregistered by September 8th will receive a commemorative t-shirt.

Cost is $11 per person or $31 per family or walking team of 4 members. (Additional family or team members pay only $8.)

This year we are very fortunate to team up with the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer, an event that raises money and awareness for the Atlanta-area breast cancer organizations that focus on breast cancer education, research, early detection, awareness and support services, as well as the unmet needs in the breast cancer community.

A portion of each registration of our event, will be donated to the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer.

Once again this year, Parks and Recreation will offer Paulding County Elementary Schools the “Elementary P.E. Challenge”! The elementary school with the most students, faculty, parents and family members, (as determined by the % of participation based on school enrollment), will win a trophy and recognition for their school as the “Most Fit” elementary school in Paulding County.

For additional information, call the Paulding County Parks & Recreation office at 770-445-8065 or to register visit one of our three locations between 8am – 5pm Monday – Friday.

Mount Tabor Park – 1550 East Paulding Drive – 770-505-3885

Taylor Farm Park – 1380 Pine Valley Road – 770-222-3270

Braly Sports Complex – 775 Industrial Blvd. N. 770-445-8065

If you would like to give to this worthy cause, but have no desire to walk/run the event, donations can be made to the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer at www.itsthejourney.org or www.2daywalk.org.
