Get ready to run this fall during the 2015 Harvest 5K.

The Harvest 5K will take place Nov. 7 at the Izaak Walton Cabin. The weather outside is unpredictable but the spirit of gratitude is for certain as community members work together to change what area food shelves look like.

The main goals of the run are:

—To raise awareness of the need for healthy food donations to county-wide food shelves.

—To make healthy choices easier and more accessible for those utilizing local food shelves.

—To gather healthy food donations to be distributed to the Salvation Army.

—To raise funds to purchase healthy food options at area food shelves.

Those utilizing the food shelves are often some of the most vulnerable community members, who lack access to healthy options. Help support local food shelves and lift up community members with this 5K.
