The United Way Corporate 5K is raising funds to support our Framingham Food Pantry, the Pearl Street Cupboard and Cafe, our early literacy program, Ready to Read, and Statewide suicide prevention/mental health line, Call2Talk.
We need volunteers to help on our 5K route, to stand at each turn and direct the runners and walkers so they know which way to go. The route begins and ends at the Pinefield Shopping Center at 1 Nicholas Road in Framingham, and goes through a fairly quite neighborhood behind the shopping center. There are a total of 11 turns and we need a volunteer at each one. The route will also be marked with arrows, but we want to ensure that our runners have a great time and no-one gets lost - and for that we need your help! Please help our runners have a great time so they will come back and run or walk with us again next year.
All you need to bring is yourself and a smile.
The run will take place rain or shine, unless there are thunderstorms, so dress for the weather!
