Rescheduled for Saturday, April 28!
We would like to invite you to join Sally Kate Winters Family Services in recognizing April as National Child Abuse Prevention Month by sponsoring, donating, and participating in our 9th Annual Spring Into Action 5K & Fun Run! The event will be held in downtown West Point at the Sally Kate Winters Memorial Park on Saturday, April 28, 2018. Your donation helps reach children who need a warm meal, a bed to sleep in, and a place to call home. All proceeds from the run will support the mission of SKW and help us better serve the children that come into our care.
FAQ
In an effort to ensure maximum enjoyment of all participants involved, we ask that runners comply with standard race etiquette. This includes, lining up at the starting line according to expected race pace, giving right of way to faster runners along the course, and following guidelines given by race officials and volunteers.
As with any social setting, there are many subtle details included in proper etiquette. However, if you abstain from cutting sharply in front of a competitor, refrain from abruptly stopping in the middle of the course to tie your shoe, remember not to hinder others from acquiring water, and are aware of your basic social cues, you will be sure to enjoy yourself and make new friends.

Like many in the running community, we believe a fit family is a happy family and allow strollers in our races as long as the course and/or local government allows. However, we do ask that participants with strollers start in the back, refrain from weaving through packs of runners, and yield the right of way to other runners.
We love pets and understand how important they can be to encouraging family stability. We ask participants with pets be kept on 5 foot non-retractable leashes, start in the back, refrain from weaving through packs of runners, and yield the right of way to other runners.
