Event Description
Garrison Mill Elementary School’s PTA and Foundation are joining forces to bring the Greyhound Gallop race back and invite you to support our school and resume this once popular tradition! All proceeds from the race will go towards installing a new rubber surface track at Garrison Mill!
Sprint gallopers, slow trotters, and families are all welcome to run/walk 1K or 5K.
5K is an AJC Peachtree Road Race Qualifying Event!
4 yo & under are welcome to take part in the Giddy Up Gallop Fun Run with our Gary the Greyhound and other friends!
