Pre-firework display race benefits efforts of Reach Inc.

On July 4th, Reach Inc. will host its 12th Annual Race for Independence. Reach is a local nonprofit that provides residential, vocational, and transportation supports to adults with developmental disabilities. This joyful celebration benefits the people Reach serves, and will include a 10K, 5K, 1K, and an assortment of exciting raffle prizes.
The course is mostly on flat trails in the beautiful Cherry River Fishing Access and Glen Lake Rotary Park (formerly the East Gallatin Recreation Area). These paths offer sweeping views of the breathtaking Gallatin Valley landscape. Because the trail narrows in some sections, runners are encouraged to stay mindful of their surroundings, and allow faster participants to pass. Walkers are welcome to join the fun. No dogs, please.
The 10K begins at 8am, the 5K at 8:15am, and the 1K at 8:25am. Bib timing will be used. In order to prevent vehicle traffic on the course, attendees are requested to arrive before 8am. The race begins and ends at the Reach Work Center, located at 322 Gallatin Park Drive in Bozeman. Parking will be available at surrounding businesses.
Registration is $25 for the 10K/5K, and $15 for the 1K. Optional, snazzy, short-sleeved, technical t-shirts will be sold for $10. You can register online at www.reachinc.org, or in person at the Reach Work Center, Monday through Friday from 8am–5pm.
A team of over 60 volunteers come together to make this event possible. If you or someone you know are interested in getting involved, please call the Work Center at (406) 587-1271 to learn more about volunteer opportunities.
