Hello All,
      This site has been inactive for quite a while; but it is time to get it up and running again. We especially want everyone to know about our expanded and revised 5K race. This race was formally known as the Quilt Festival 5K but due to annual scheduling conflicts we needed to move up our time a few weeks. The new race name is the Love Your Neighbor Mission 5K! This new name testifies to our purpose behind putting on this event. All profit from the race will be given to agencies or programs that aid those in need in our community such as the South Shore Helping Hands. We have changed the start time and expanded the activities surrounding the race this year in order to make it a full evening of activities.
     The race will begin at 6:00 PM on Saturday, September 14th at the South Shore First United Methodist Church parking lot (950 Main Street  South Shore, KY). We have partnered with TriStateRacer's TSR Timing Group in order to offer a professionally chip-timed race. Beginning at 5:00 PM. The cost to enter the race is $20. The first 150 people to register will receive a free race t-shirt and a goody bag on the day of the race. You can register for the race at www.tristateracer.com by checking out their calendar and clicking on are race. You can also email ssfirstumc@windstream.net and request a form to be sent to your email. Registration needs to be received by Friday, September 13th. We have also partnered with local businesses and groups to provide a Health Fair where you can find out more about wellness and the agencies in our area that are offering services that promote physical health and well-being.
      We didn't stop there though. Following the race we will be having a BBQ and live music Block Party. Several groups playing different genres of music will be playing throughout the evening. Stay tuned for specific information about the groups that will be performing. There is no charge for this meal and block party; however, donations will be welcome and all profits will go to helping those in need in our community. I hope you will consider joining us for this exciting event!
