Divine Savior Healthcare is pleased to host our Annual Run/Walk & Kite Fly on Saturday, June 11, 2016, in conjunction with the 2016 Portage Canal Days event.
Divine Savior Healthcare is pleased to host our Run/Walk in support of the Portage Area Trails Heritage System (PATHS). All profits from the race will go directly to the project to create a walkable and bikeable community.
The PATHS project is a proposal to link the Portage Community with a 65 mile trail system that will allow residents and visitors to freely bike, run or walk the community. Not only will this system link our natural and historic wonders, but it will also increase our overall wellness, tourism potential, recreational opportunities and economic growth while creating an increased sense of community.
RUN: 10K, 5K or 1 mile
Runners will start and stop near Tivoli, our residential facility at 2805 Hunters Trail in Portage, and follow a course that includes Hamilton Street, East Albert Street and Agency House Road. The 10K course will take runners out along the canal to the historic Indian Agency House and back.
WALK: One mile and 5K walk for adults and children of all ages!
