Youngsters ages 2 to 11 are invited to join the fun while supporting a good cause by participating in the Second Annual 4 Miler at Garret Mountain on Saturday, Sept. 7 at Garret Mountain Reservation in Woodland Park, N.J. Proceeds from the charity run, sponsored by the Sax Macy Fromm (SMF) Foundation, will benefit the Child Life Department at St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital in Paterson, N.J.
Kids’ dashes, with distances ranging from 25 to 200 yards, will begin at 10:15 a.m., and all participating children will receive finishing ribbons. The entry fee for the kids’ dash is $8. Adults can participate in a 4-mile run at 9 a.m. or a 1.5-mile trail walk at 9:10 a.m. The pre-registration fee for adults is $23 before Sept. 2 and $25 thereafter.
