2010 Riverfest 1M/5K

Ride to a Wish and Partnership for the Sounds presents
The 2010 Riverfest 1M / 5K
Saturday, October 9, 2010
7 am

The First Annual Riverfest 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk and 5K Run/Walk will be held in Columbia, NC.

There will be plenty of time to participate and then make it out to the rest of The Riverfestival activities including the parade. All monies raised go back into the Tyrrell County community! Monies will be split between the Sherriff’s Department K-9 unit, the Volunteer Fire Department, the EMS folks and Riverfest committee. This is a family friendly event. Walk, run or RIDE (yes bikes are welcome!) and a 1 mile course will be laid out also.

Its only $20.00 to participate if you register prior to October 1st. (that’s less than 4.00 a week!)

A family registration for the 5K has recently been added to the event so $45.00 will cover a family of 5 ( kids under 18). This way the kids can be involved without breaking the families bank!



All entrants receive a goody bag and event T-shirt!. First place male and female 5K runners get a $50.00 Visa Gift Card. Registration forms can be downloaded by clicking HERE or picked up at Tyrrell County Offices, Columbia Municipal Center and at the Tyrrell County Visitors center.

Please get the word out! Challenge your neighbors, friends and co-workers!!!

The date for the 2011 Ride to a Wish Bike Ride has been announced and will be held Saturday, April 16, 2011. You can see the images I took at the 2010 event HERE.
