Jack’s Abby Craft Lagers and the United Way of Tri-County have teamed up once again to rally runners and walkers to raise funds to support the community at the 5th Annual Jack’s Abby United Way 5K. The race will be virtual this year and is scheduled from Saturday, October 10 to Saturday, October 17.
Participants can run or walk anywhere, anytime, while maintaining safe social distancing, and when finished easily submit their times online. In lieu of awards, participants will be entered into a raffle to win some great prizes! Raffle names will be drawn on Facebook Live, Thursday, October 22 at noon.
All runners and walkers registered by September 21 will receive a custom race tee, and all participants will receive a $7 gift card for a beer, (for those 21+), food or merchandise, at Jack’s Abby Beer Hall and Kitchen, as well as a coupon for hair services at Strands Hair Studio in Natick.
