In 2006, the Elizabeth City Junior Woman's Club held their first Spring Sprint 5K in conjunction with the Albemarle Potato Festival. The event had 44 runners from ages 11 through 65 and was a great success. All participants received a t-shirt and goody bag which included a Healthy Mr. Potato Head water bottle, shoe lace key holder, granola bar and helpful, healthy tips for living better. Winners in each race category received a trophy.
For 2007, ECJWC has added a 3K Walk to encourage more participation. It is not only a great fundraiser for the club but also helps to promote a healthy lifestyle through exercise. We hope you can join us on May 19, 2007 at Waterfront Park in Elizabeth City. For more information, contact SpringSprint@yahoo.com. Registration can be done online at www.Active.com or download the registration form and mail to ECJWC Spring Sprint PO Box 1742, Elizabeth City, NC 27906-1742.
