Event Description

Justice for Alzheimer’s 5K.  A student-led race associated with the Hardin County Teen Court. The Justice for Alzheimer’s 5K is created by Hardin County Teen Court Students. It will be on March 7, 2020, at 8 AM at the Elizabethtown Sports Complex. Packet pick up will be on March 6, 2020. 

CAUSE

The purpose of this race is to bring together the Hardin County Community to help find a cure for Alzheimer's and recognize a special individual that has given their time and energy to our beloved home. This very special gentleman is Paul Hornback. Nevertheless, to fulfill our goal we are going to have a friendly competition between all Hardin County Schools. The school with the most students/staff/alumni will win a special prize. All adults are $20.  However, we are offering a discount for students, $15 for ages 10-18 and FREE for ages 9 and younger. Even if you do not live in the Hardin County area, we still highly encourage you to join us in this extraordinary race in hopes of one day curing Alzheimer's. 

GOAL

The goal is to support the Alzheimer's Association and give back to Paul Hornback. We learned that Mr. Hornback suffers from Alzheimer's and he is a member of the Alzheimer's Association.  Race proceeds will help find a cure for this heartbreaking disease - Alzheimer's to help our family and friends like Mr. Hornback while also raising money for the Hardin County Teen Court Scholarship.  We will give 90% of the proceeds to the Alzheimer's Association. The final 10% of our profits will go to the Teen Court Scholarship (created in honor of Judge Shumate).
