The Town of Culver will be honoring the memory of victims of the World Trade Center attacks, fallen heroes and their families with a 9/11 Heroes 5K Run and 1 mile fun run/walk on Saturday, September 16. In the meanwhile, event coordinators and volunteers have been lining the course with American flags.
Walkers and runners of all different ages and abilities are asked to come out to the Culver Academy Naval Building this Saturday to show support for veterans, their families and first responders. There is still time to register online before the race but individuals also have the ability to register on-site for an additional cost.
Registration and packet pick-up will begin at 7:15 a.m. and last until 8 a.m EST. Opening ceremonies will be at 8:15 a.m. and the 5K begins at 8:30 a.m. The 1 mile fun run/walk begins at 9:15 a.m. and awards will be presented around 9:45 a.m.
Proceeds raised through Saturday’s event go toward the Travis Manion Foundation which empowers veterans and families of fallen heroes to thrive in post-service life.
