Online Registration for Brightview's Age is Just a # 5K Open

Brightview’s first annual Age is Just a # 5K Run/ Walk will take place Saturday, June 25 at 8:30 am at Ma & Pa Trail, Williams Street entrance, in Bel Air.

One hundred percent of the proceeds will benefit Harford County’s Office on Aging’s Senior Emergency Fund, a fund established to assist Harford County seniors who find themselves in difficult circumstances with no other resources on which to rely.

“Age is really just a number,” explains Andy Anderson, Executive Director at Brightview Avondell. “We embrace this philosophy each day at Brightview, and want others to believe it too.”

“We’re looking forward to a fun-filled day,” affirms Jen Bourgeois, Executive Director at Brightview Bel Air. “Because residents, families and associates are concerned about seniors living in Harford County, our communities wanted the run/ walk to benefit the county’s Senior Emergency Fund.”

“Senior Emergency Funds have made a difference in the quality of life and independence for many seniors in the county,” adds Karen Winkowski at the Office on Aging’s Senior Emergency Fund. “We are honored to be included in this special event.”

Age groups for the 5k include children 12 and under, ages 13-59 and over 60. A one kilometer walk will also be held for all ages.

Brightview Avondell and Brightview Bel Air are event sponsors for the 5K but gold, silver and bronze sponsorship opportunities are available.
