Join us for the Dom Fratta XC Pavilion 5K in Willard, scheduled for the morning of Saturday, November 15th! This will be a ribbon-cutting event for the new XC pavilion at City Park honoring long-time Willard coach and resident Dom Fratta, replacing a 50-year old shelter near the pickleball courts for the public to enjoy. The event is managed by Willard's Cross Country teams, and all proceeds will directly benefit Willard's Cross Country program. Thank you to our Title Sponsor, Sutton Bank, as well as all other sponsors contributing to make this event a success!
All participants who register by Saturday, November 1st will be guaranteed to receive a race shirt!
Awards will be announced soon, but they will be fashioned from salvaged materials from the previous long-standing shelter, which has been a meeting point for Willard's XC teams for decades. Awards will be given to the Top 3 Overall finishers for both Men and Women, as well as to the Top 3 Age Group finishers for Men and Women in the following categories (if enough participants register, some categories might be broken down further into 5-year groups):
Under 14, 14-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+
We will also be hosting a 1-Mile race for kids age 12 and under, with awards given to categories of 9-12 and 8 and under.
