2020 JULY 4TH BAY DAYS 5-MI RACE & KID’S FUN RUN CANCELED
Regrettably, the 2020 July 4th Bay Days 5-Mile & Kid's Fun Run is canceled. Due to ongoing concerns about Covid-19 and the restrictions and recommendations of the State of Ohio and the CDC that limit large gathering events and the necessity of providing social distancing and safety for participants, volunteers, spectators, and all involved are too challenging and Cleveland West Running Club has taken the difficult decision to cancel this year’s race event.
Proceeds from the 2020 Bay Days race were targeted to support the Carolyn L. Farrell Foundation for Brain Health, a local non-profit charity that provides activity-based programs for people living at home with dementia/Alzheimer's. They bring programming to the community to help support people's treatment plan and management of their illness. Local charities are particularly impacted by the challenges the pandemic places on their ability to raise funds and continue their much-needed mission. We hope you will consider donating directly to the Farrell Foundation to support their programming that helps so many in our area. Learn more and access the donation link at FarrellFoundation.org
Cleveland West Road Runners hopes each of your find your own way to keep running and stay healthy and we look forward to seeing you at the starting line of the 2021 Bay Days 5-mi and Kid’s Fun Run.
