Country Classics In the Community: Run With Rotary!

Written by Amy Wood | 08 April, 2016, 10:00AM

At Country Classics, we don’t just build homes within the community—we’re also part of the community! That means being involved in activities that help grow the communities where we build homes. That’s why we’re so pleased to be a sponsor for this year’s Run With Rotary 5k and 1-mile Fun Run. 

On Sunday, April 24, 2016, the Rotary Club of Montgomery Rocky Hill will once again hold the race at Skillman Park in Skillman, NJ.  The ramble/walk will begin at 10:00 a.m., followed by the 5K Road Race/walk at 10:35 a.m. Formerly known as the “Run with Aimee,” this wonderful race was first held in 1997 and has been a successful community event for 10 years. At the urging of the Montgomery Township Recreation Department, the Rotary Club of Montgomery Rocky Hill volunteered to maintain this important community activity.

Proceeds will benefit the Rotary Club of Montgomery Rocky Hill Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization involved in local, national and international charitable activities. Included in those activities is support for the Montgomery Township Food Pantry, as well as programs spearheaded by Rotary International for the eradication of polio and for the provision of relief to victims of natural disasters through the ShelterBox Program.

We’re pleased to be a part of this great event and urge community members to join in—either as participants or to encourage participants on. Entrances to the park are on County Rt. 601 and Burnt Hill Road. On race day, please bring nonperishable food items, basic necessities or household cleaning supplies to help our local food pantry.
