Since when is a run fun? When it’s the Boundary
Community Hospital Family Fun Run. On Saturday,
May 13, lace up those running shoes and come out
with neighbors, friends and family to get some
exercise on the north side of Bonners Ferry.
Pre-Registration begins on Monday, May 1. Entry forms
are available from Hospital Outpatient Services
or the hospital website
www.boundarycommunityhospital.org. Anyone
who participates in the race, whether you run or
walk, must register and sign a liability release
form.
A parent or guardian must sign the release form
for children under the age of 13. The first 70
people to register will receive a free collector
T-shirt. Race packets will be available for
pickup at the Community Relations office from
Wednesday, May 10, through noon on Friday, May
12.
There are three distances that you can run or
walk. The 3K is 1.86 miles; the 5K is 3.1 miles;
and the 10K is 6.2 miles. All of the routes
start and end on Kaniksu Street next to the
Emergency entrance at Boundary Community
Hospital.
The Fun Run takes off at 8 a.m. sharp.
Team participation is encouraged, so get a group
together and plan to participate in this “fun”
BCH Run 17, sponsored by the Boundary Community
Hospital Emergency Team!
There will be water stations located along the
courses. Maps are available for download on the
Hospital website and will be included in the
race packets. Participants will need to check in
with Fun Run officials before the start of the
run. Check in stations open at 7 a.m. and will
be located next to the helipad. Same day
registrations are accepted.
Plan to attend the Health Fair after your run or
walk is completed. Over 40 vendors and
exhibitors will be opening early so everyone can
stop and get information. Discover the Health
Fair Advantage and find out more about
healthcare options in Boundary County at the
Annual BCH Health Fair from 9 a.m. to noon on
Saturday, May 13. |
