Rattlesnake Run fundraiser scheduled by CCEEC

The Carbon County Environmental Education Center has begun taking registration for its annual Rattlesnake Run, a 5k race and one-mile fun walk set for June 17 this year.

The event takes place at Lehigh Gorge State Park, and is open to runners and walkers of all ages.

“If you’ve never done an event like this before, this is a great opportunity for firsttimers,” said race director Susan Gallagher. “It’s an easy, out-and-back course. It’s flat and you can’t get lost. You can go as fast or as slow as you want.”

The race has been held each summer for over 10 years, and offers unique “rattlesnake” awards made from repurposed bicycle chain.

Registration is available in-person at CCEEC, or online at www.carboneec. org.

Sponsorships are also being accepted to help cover costs of the fundraiser.

Questions can be directed to Gallagher at cceec@ptd. net.
