Join us for our Checkers September group run tonight (9/16) at 140 Cayuga Road in Williamsville. We will be running part of the Moonlight Run 5k course. Please park on Milton Street or California Drive or in the free parking lot near Main Street.

Come simply to run or join Wendy Guyker’s optional “Shed the Layers” challenge. Think race-day throwaway clothes: layer up before the run, then shed those extra layers and donate them to support our Savers fundraiser. And there’s a little incentive to get into the spirit: a prize goes to the runner who sheds the most layers before we start!

Not a fan of the layering thing? No problem. Just come out for the run and feel free to bring clothing or other accepted donation items to drop off.

We'll see you tonight!
