The ROCC Sunnyside Ministry 5K
The ROCC Sunnyside Ministry 5K is the 15th annual road race held in Clemmons, North Carolina, at 1855 Lewisville Clemmons Road. The course follows Lewisville-Clemmons Road for approximately 3.1 miles and is described as mostly flat, fast, and straight. The event supports Sunnyside Ministry, a local Christian nonprofit that operates a food pantry and clothing closet, provides financial assistance during crises, and offers financial education programs.
Event services include free childcare for infants through kindergarten, free race photos, and a kid's fun zone. A separate Kid's Fun Run uses the church property and prayer trail and covers roughly a quarter to a half mile; participants assemble near the office entrance and finish through the 5K finish chute. Awards are given to the top three finishers in each age group, and cash prizes of $175, $125, and $75 are offered to the overall top three male and female finishers.
Additional event details note a need for volunteers. Registration opens January 31 and closes March 15, with a stated registration fee of $20. The event emphasizes support for the beneficiary organization and community services provided by Sunnyside Ministry. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
