Looking for a run that will help a community? This is the one, the Cloquet River Run. It's now open to register early to get in and reserve your place. Race proceeds will go toward health-related equipment and programs, and technology purchases for Churchill Elementary School.

The Cloquet River Run is a fundraising activity that promotes healthy lifestyles in children and the community. Both races start and end at the Churchill Elementary School Playground.  The “little kids race” gives children up to age 6 the opportunity to participate on a short sprint on the playground field. According to the website,  It is a fun community event and includes a wonderful spaghetti feed at packet pick-up the night before.  Kids are very involved from designing the artwork for the race shirts to providing entertainment at the pasta feed.  They also participate in a practice1 mile run/walk a few weeks before the event at school!
