Break out your running shoes, stretch out your legs, grab your four-legged running buddy and make the move to stop child abuse. The Child Advocacy Center of Putnam County is proud to announce that registration is open for the annual One Too Many NY 5K to end child abuse and will be held from September 16th-18th, 2022. Get moving and run for the kids because one child abused is “ONE TOO MANY.”
This virtual fundraiser is open to individuals of all ages from any town, any city, or any state. Participants may choose their preferred exercise (run, walk, bike, hike etc.) to complete the 5K (3.1 miles). Individuals can participate at their own pace, on their own route, in teams or by themselves, wherever and whenever between Friday, September 16th and Sunday, September 18th. Register online and select Putnam County at https://onetoomany/eventbrite.com by August 12, 2022, for a guaranteed race t-shirt. With a $40 registration fee, participants receive a One Too Many NY 5K t-shirt, a run/walk bib, and a chance to win some exciting prizes.
