Going The Distance for the Salvation Army - Morton
This is a charity community run in Morton with proceeds directed to the Salvation Army. The event includes a 5K running race and also accepts donations from people who cannot attend in person.
Participants and visitors may bring gently used shoes for collection; drop off containers will be located at the main table near the start line. The start and finish lines are placed in front of the Morton High School main entrance on Illinois Avenue. Restrooms are available inside Morton High School.
A course map is provided with mile and kilometer markers.
