The Friends of the Vineyard Haven Public Library will host their annual 5k event to benefit the library on Sunday, Sept. 18. The USATF-sanctioned 5k Run/Walk starts at the library, with runners proceeding to the West Chop lighthouse and back. There will also be a free half-mile fun run for kids 13 and under.
There will be medals for winners in all age groups, and all participants will be eligible to win raffle prizes, including gift certificates from local stores. The $25 5k registration fee includes a T shirt. The 5k starts at 10 am; fun run for kids starts at 9:45 am; registration begins at 8:30 am.
Participants can save $5 off registration fee by registering in advance. Registration forms are available at the library or may be downloaded from vhlibrary.org.
