YMCA 5K 09-28-23 full.pdf

The Marco Board of Realtors with the local YMCA on Marco Island will again sponsor Fall Festival Fun Day which will start off at 9:00 AM in the morning on October 28, 2023. The day will begin with a 5K Run/Jog/Walk Event which will end back at the YMCA Campus on Sand Hill. Participants in the 5K Event are asked to register prior to the event by calling the YMCA at 239-394-9622 or by dropping in at their campus.

Entry fee for the 5K Event is $40 and includes a light breakfast and collector’s shirt. Proceeds will go to supporting the YMCA Senior Programming. You should arrive by 8:00 AM for the 9:00 AM start of the 5K. You may choose to run in the event, jog or walk - whichever a person feels most comfortable doing.

After the conclusion of the 5K event participants and others are welcome to join the Fall Festival Event to be hosted at the YMCA and Realtors Association for fun and games around the YMCA Campus. There is no charge for the Fall Festival, and families are all welcome to attend. There will be food, games and other fun activities for all attending.

“Our board of directors felt this would be a great event to help sponsor once again this year. Last year we were able to raise $39,000 to help fund some of the children’s programs at the YMCA. This year the money we’ll be raising will go to support the Senior Programming being done at our local YMCA,” said Geoff Fahringer, the incoming 2024 President of the Marco Island Area Association of Realtors.

Fahringer explained that the Realtor Affiliates are a large part of the success of an event such as this, as they donate to help sponsor many of the events organized by their members, and as such are a big part of the success of our Association.
