Sunday, April 26—LUDLOW—Okemo Mountain School is partnering with the Ludlow Police Department to raise money for local families who are in need of food during the Covid-19 crisis. This pandemic has caused much turmoil all over the world, but we are also seeing it in our local community with the loss of jobs, especially surrounding the hospitality business, which is so important to Ludlow.
The money raised is going to the immediate need for food and supplies for our local families and will be distributed by the Ludlow Police Department.
There are two ways to participate.
Option 1: Sign up online to run or walk a 5K by April 26. You may complete the 5K in your own backyard or around your neighborhood; however, we would love to see pictures, videos, screenshots of your route, etc. You may email these to Ashley Belcher, abelcher@okemomountainschool.org.
If you would like to get competitive with your 5K, join the race on Strava. The runner with the fastest time will win a prize. To join the Okemo Mountain School Strava group to track your run visit strava.com/clubs/okemo-mountain-school-617597
Option 2: You may make a direct donation to support the families in need. We are also asking our runners and walkers to recruit family members and friends to make donations in their honor. The participant that raises the most money will win a prize.
