5K and Memory Mile Sponsorship
The Caleb Cares 5K & Memory Mile is a charity fundraising event will take place along the Cumberland River on a paved path beginning at McGregor Park, located in the River District of Clarksville! The route will be "down and back' on a wide path with plenty of shade! This event is hosted by The Caleb Cares Project in partnership with the Clarksville-Montgomery County Suicide Prevention Alliance.
New In 2024 - The Memory Mile!!
On the route of this race will be a memory mile filled with signs to honor our loved ones and friends who have died tragically by suicide. Let us speak up and speak out that their death does not define them, and honor the beautiful life they lived. Each sign will include your loved one's name, photo and a quote or verse you like to remember them by. Memory Mile sponsorship is $100 which includes race registration and one t-shirt.
Also new this year, this race will not be officially timed and bibs or awards will not be given, but door prizes will be given out at the conclusion of the race!
Event Details:
Early registration and memory mile sponsorship will end Friday, August 30th. MUST be registered by 8/30 to be guaranteed a shirt.
