Wiesbrook School to host Tiger Trot 5K run May 21

WHEATON — The Wiesbrook Elementary School PTA welcomes runners and walkers of all ages and experience levels to join the parents and students of Wiesbrook Elementary School at our 5K Race & 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk on Saturday, May 21 at 7:30a.m.

Proceeds from the race will benefit Sharing Connections Furniture Bank, a non-profit organization that provides furniture and household items to low-income families helping them transform a bare apartment or house into a home. Most families served are coping with crises like domestic violence, job loss, or financial hardship, with an average annual income of $11,600.

The blacktop course for the race runs through the scenic Arrowhead and Legends subdivisions in which the school is located. Race start and finish occur at the school where day-of registration will also take place and post-race concessions will be offered.

The Tiger Trot will be chip-timed. Results will be posted online at www.realtiminginc.com.

Registration forms can be found online at http://www.cusd200.org/wiesbrook, and at other locations throughout DuPage county. Registration costs are $12/person with a $40/family cap.

T-shirt orders must be received by 5/4. A select amount of T-shirts will be available on race day.
