Mark your calendars for the 14th Annual Run for the Rec 5k!
Run for the Rec has grown to be McKnight Village’s biggest event of the year. Thanks to the support of sponsors, runners, walkers, and just-for-funners we have a beautiful, community-owned park with a playground, pavilion, wooded trails, baseball field, and basketball court.
Each year, proceeds contribute the growing fund to install a new playground in approximately 2032. As well, smaller projects are tackled each year, like planting native trees and installing a sandbox. Proceeds from past Runs for the Rec have allowed us to repave the walking path, resurface the basketball court, and keep the playground safe while we fundraise for the new structures.
We are currently recruiting volunteers! If you'd like to help us before or on race day, please email us.
