We will be awarding these beautiful medals at Fowler Park almost exactly 7 days from now after all our wonderful Fowler Fireworks Frenzy participants have completed their race. And, of course, either before or after they have received their medals, they are all invited to enjoy a free Rotary Pancake breakfast at the park! T-shirt deadline was last Monday, shirts were ordered on Tuesday, and soon they will be on their way! We still have a limited number of shirts available in ADULT small, medium, large, X-large, and XX-large. Contact me if you want me with questions or to reserve one. ONLINE registration will be open through Wednesday @ "Fowler Fireworks Frenzy 2025". The site will indicate that all sizes are available in ALL sizes, but don't BELIEVE it! I will contact you to try to get the best match for what shirt & size you would like!

Custom medals that make your 5K unforgettable.
Designed for Fowler Fireworks Frenzy 5K—ready just in time for race day.

John and Susan Plank of Brookston, IN, completed their VIRTUAL in Lafayette, IN, not your typical 5-K route near Tippecanoe Mall, Franciscan Health, and the Lafayette Marketplace Mall! Why??? Because they were multi-tasking, had taken their car in for an oil change and walked 5.14 KM while they were waiting, even doing some of it in the rain. Congratulations! We are all impressed by your time management efficiency!!!

FROG-HOP FIVE 5K ONSITE/VIRTUAL
APRIL 23RD, 2022
UPDATES:

First of all, my sincere apologies for taking so long to wrap up the details of this year’s Frog-Hop Five. Technology can be one’s best friend or worst enemy. And this year the latter was the case. . . dealing with an aging desktop that was really bogging down and needed to spend time in the “computer hospital” . . . and a new laptop with a learning curve I have yet to totally master. . .

So, anyway, thank you ALL for your participation in this year’s Frog-Hop! There have technically now been 4.5 Frog-Hops, with the first two in 2018 and 2019, and in 2020 the “hybrid” Frog-Hop Frenzy which combined the Frog-Hop with the Fowler Fireworks Frenzy due to COVID, and then the Frog-Hops for 2021 and 2022!

Thanks to your generosity, we will be presenting to our two beneficiaries, BIRTHRIGHT OF RENSSELAER and the NEWTON COUNTY BACKPACK PROGRAM, $775 each!

We had 78 onsite finishers on a lovely Saturday morning which was not too hot (we have had that), and not too cold (we have had that also), and no threat of rain (yes, we have also had that. . . ).

We are VERY PROUD of our TOP MALE: Tristan Barricks, age 17, from Kentland, IN, with a time of 19:01.5, and our TOP FEMALE: Heidi Weisman, age 34, from Morocco, IN, with time of 24:08:3. Heidi finished 8th overall!

We had approximately 30 Virtual participants and are ready to post updates on them and their accomplishments!

The Frog-Hop Five would like to introduce you to one of our participants for whom April 23rd, 2022, was a VERY special day, and not simply because of the FHF! Harold Haldeman of Fowler, IN, age 84, fell in love with a lovely Fowler lady by the name of Ellen Denton several months ago, and not too long after that asked her to be his wife. A week before the Frog-Hop, Harold and Ellen were given a wedding shower by their families and friends at Fowler Community Center. At that event, Ellen URGED the race director to be sure that AFTER the race we all make sure that Harold "makes it to the church"!!! There was never a question as to whether Harold could do the 5K (1:04:42), (he walks miles on the streets of Fowler on a daily basis . . . ), but simply that he would get back to Fowler in time for the wedding. (Harold makes new friends very easily and Ellen didn't want him to get sidetracked. . .) Harold did not stay for the award ceremony, however, because of his "plans" for the afternoon. And he and Ellen did indeed get married right on schedule! Congratulations to Harold and Ellen! We are all so happy for you both!
