Boy Scouts to hold 3rd Annual 5K and 15K in Collaboration with Raven Ridge Wildlife Center
The Pennsylvania Dutch Council is collaborating with Raven Ridge Wildlife Center to host a Virtual Race during the month of June 2022. Proceeds from the race will be shared between Raven Ridge Wildlife Center and the Pennsylvania Dutch Boy Scout Council. We are encouraging our Scouting families and the community to join us by running, walking, biking, hiking, or shuffling a 5K or 15K at home, in their neighborhood, on a track, or on their favorite trail. Each participant will be emailed a bib that they can print and are asked to share a picture of their race on the Virtual Race Facebook event page!
The $20.00 registration fee will include a print at home bib and a patch to commemorate the race.
