BoulderDash 5k Benefits Forsyth County

Something has always intrigued me about rock quarries; probably because it’s not too easy to tour one. Sure, you can hear the explosions blasting away the rock at regular intervals, but seeing that massive crater in the earth has always been on my to-do list.

Does anybody else feel this way? Well May 1st, Bowen Family Homes residents can check it off your list at the BoulderDash 5k Fitness Run/Walk and Corporate Challenge. Lafarge Quarry in Cumming is opening their gates to walk/run participants as then finish line of the 5k. The quarry is active and prides itself on being environmentally responsible.

The registration fee for the run/walk goes toward two great causes: the Forsyth County Park and Recreation Department and the “Envision a Fit Forsyth” program. You can sign up an entire company or team, or run/walk in a small group or solo.

After you’ve ended the run/walk at the quarry, you can wind down and enjoy the Spring Fling. Vendors and companies will have tents set up and music will be played by a local DJ. If you want a tent space for your team or company, see the BoulderDash 5k web site for prices and information.

Bowen Family Homes residents of Hanover Place, Stonehaven Pointe, and Stonehaven Terrace in Forsyth County should get out there and register for this event. It’s a fun, active way to support your community! For more information on these or any of the Bowen Family Homes communities, please visit the Bowen Family Homes Web site.
