Harrisonville Middle School to host first-ever 5k Wildcat Run

The Harrisonville community is invited to participate in the first-ever Harrisonville Middle School Wildcat Run on Wednesday, May 22. The event will benefit the HMS physical education department.

The event will feature a 5K which begins and ends at Harrisonville Middle School. Registration for the 5K is $20 and the pre-registration deadline is May 3. However, participants may register up to the day of the race for an additional $5 per person. All pre-registrants will receive a race t-shirt.

Sponsorships for the Harrisonville Wildcat Run are available. Sponsorship levels begin at $100 for a White Sponsor. Royal Blue Sponsorships are $500 and True Wildcat Sponsorships are $1,000.

Prizes will be awarded for top finishers in each grade as well as top fundraisers for each grade.

Organizer Lindsay Hartzler, HMS PE teacher, said "We believe that it is important for our students to participate in lifetime fitness activities such as running/walking. We are asking community members to also participate to reinforce the concept of lifetime fitness."

Registration forms are available on-line at www.harrisonvilleschools.org/hmswildcatrun or at Harrisonville Middle School, 601 S. Highland.

Race-day registration begins at 8:30 a.m. The 5K begins at 9 a.m.
