Cleveland, OH - Lace up your running or walking shoes for the 10th Parma Run-Walk for Pierogies, sponsored by Perla’s Pierogies, attorney and former Mayor Dean DePiero, Humenik Funeral Chapel, and First Federal of Lakewood, coming up on Saturday, July 3 at 7:30 am at Cuyahoga Community College’s western campus.
Participants may either run or walk the 5k (3.1 miles) or walk the one-mile course. Pre-registration is only $25 ($15 for ages 11 and under) and may be completed online at runsignup.com/Race/OH/Parma/runwalkforpierogies. Day of event registration is $30. You can also e-mail us at pierogie5k@gmail.com or call me at (440) 885-8091 for a mail-in registration form or for sponsorship opportunities.
The Run-Walk takes place on the beautiful CCC-West campus, which makes for a very flat course. Those who place in the top three spots in several age groups win our signature pierogie necklace award. The first 600 participants who pre-register are guaranteed to receive our famous Parma Run-Walk for Pierogies t-shirt, so register early. When you have completed the event, David and Daniel Serban from Parma’s own Perla’s Pierogies will generously provide participants with a certificate for a half-dozen of their award-winning pierogies.
Proceeds raised by the Run-Walk will, once again, benefit many local charities and community projects.
