Event Description

A fun and challenging run in the southern Sierra Nevada town of Kernville, CA, benefiting our local KES Parent Teacher Committee.  Kernville Elementary School Parent Teacher Committee is a non-profit organization that works alongside teachers and staff to provide needs (i.e.funding for field trips, assemblies, and equipment) within our school that are beyond the budget of our school district.  Our hope is that every student would have the opportunity to experience their education and have up-to-date technology that will benefit them for the future.  Come and join us for our St. Patrick's Day run dressed as a lucky leprechaun and see if luck is on your side to beat your best time.  A full weekend can be made of your time in Kernville, come and enjoy the beauty of the Kern River.  The 2nd annual out and back 5K will take place March 16, 2019 in Kernville.  Our staging area and packet pick up will be at the Kernville Elementary School.  This is intended to be a fun run, all age levels are welcome.  Walkers are welcome too!  Our fun run is a short run aimed for younger kids which takes place in our school's backyard.  Kids will collect gold coins along their route and trade them in for a treat!  Kids Fun Run will take place promptly at 9:00 am, followed by the 5K. Breakfast will be available for purchase ($5.00) during and after the race.
