SABATTUS — Each year, the Sabattus Rec Running Program holds two fun, mainly non-competitive 5K events. These are designed for all ages, and anyone can win a prize. There is a very low registration fee of just $5!!! (There are prizes for first place male and female at each event, but most prizes are not based on time.) Each event is held at the Oak Hill Middle School on Ballpark Rd in Sabattus. Each event begins at 6 p.m., with registration starting at 5 p.m.

Thursday, July 21, 6 p.m.: The first event is the Blackjack 5K. Participants will collect two cards on the course, and if they get a Blackjack, they will win a prize. If they don’t get Blackjack, they can get one more card at the finish line to try for a 3-card total of 21. All 21s will win a prize. Then the remainder o the prizes will be raffled off.

Thursday, August 18, 6 p.m.: The second event is the Prediction 5K. Participants guess their finish time when they register, and no watches, trackers, earbuds, or any electronic devices are allowed on the course. Prizes will be awarded starting with the closest to their guess, and work down the list. There will also be more prizes raffled off after the top 10 guesses.
