Tin Can 5K

The Canterbury Family Fun Run/Walk – Tin Can 5K is an annual community event. This race offers great fun, fitness, prizes and the opportunity to serve the hunger needs of our community. Whether you love to run or walking is more your speed, bring the whole family on Saturday, October 10. The course begins at the Canterbury High School soccer fields (3210 Smith Road, Fort Wayne) and continues through the campus to use part of the Aboite New Trails system. Proceeds and donated food items benefit Associated Churches Food Network. Pre-register online for the race/walk at www.canterburyschool.org. Shirts will be given to the first 120 to pre-register.
