Other Winners of the 5K run

It’s been nearly six years in the making, but Roane County is nearing the opening of it’s first Boys and Girls Club. Community leaders have worked on the project for a long time, and say it’s a sorely needed program for the county’s youth. There is a problem with funding to actually get the project rolling. Officials say that $150,000 must be raised by December, and so a fundraising campaign kicked off Labor Day, beginning with a 5K run at Harriman’s Riverfront Park. The Boys and Girls Club will be situated in the Harriman Middle School.

 

The 5K race began at Riverfront Park in Harriman and continued through the streets of the historic district and ended up at the starting point in the park.
