[Oshkosh] The Pacesetters Running Club is sponsoring a Family Fun Run starting at 5:00 - 7:00 pm at County Park in Oshkosh. The event organizers are hoping that the kiters would also attend and fill the sky with colorful kites to add to the excitement. It’s a great family event.

Please note that the running course starts and finished by the soccer fields...so perhaps this would be a good location to stake ground displays, etc.

Kathy Jankowski is on site contact for the event.
