There is still time to register for the 2023 Gary Tillman Memorial Clocktower 5K and 2-Mile Health Walk set for Saturday, August 19th. Event proceeds will benefit the Exchange Club Family Resource Center.
Gail Johnson, event promoter, attests that the race has raised nearly $400,000 for the FRC over the past 18 years.
The 5K is USATF-certified and is a qualifier for the Peachtree Road Race. It will begin at 8 am. The 2-Mile Health Walk will start at 8:05 am.
Registration is $30 for the race and $25 for the walk through August 9th. The price will increase to $35/$30 from August 10th through August 15th, the date on which registration will close. There will be no registration on race day. A discount of $3 per person is offered to groups of ten or more. Find the link to register at www.frcrome.org.
Funds raised from the event will support the FRC’s mission to prevent child abuse. Johnson says that the center lends a helping hand to local families that are struggling.
