Do you have a burning desire to help your community?Last year Way Station, Inc. sponsored a 5k Run & 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk on Thanksgiving Day to raise money for the mentally ill population that we serve daily in Frederick, Maryland. We had over 2000 runners/walkers.
We are currently in the planning stages for our next 5k Run & 1k Fun Run/Walk for Thursday, November 26, 2009.
