Jackson Rose Run celebrates 53rd year; returns to Jets Hangar Saturday

是53rd annual Jackson Rose Run this Saturday. As people walk and run their way through the scenery a large portion of the proceeds will go towards the 杰克逊的大学 Women’s Soccer team.

The Rose Run starts at 7:30 a.m. at the 杰克逊的大学 Jets Hangar.

Head Coach Andy Hosmer says the proceeds will go towards equipment, gear and potentially some field maintenance.

“This is one of the crown jewels of running opportunities in the Jackson area in my personal opinion,他说. “I’m biased of course because we’re the ones putting it on 在这里 but it’s a great opportunity to get people out 在这里 on campus and see everything that we have going on. T在这里’s always something going on 在这里 at 杰克逊的大学.”

As for the upcoming season which starts Aug 1., Head Coach Andy Hosmer is feeling excited.

“I’ve worked really hard on recruiting and I think we’re going to have a very talented group but we also compete in a very, very challenging region. It’s one of the top regions in the country,” Hosmer said. “The goal is to make it to Nationals and make some noise t在这里 like the softball teams have been doing the last couple years.”

If you are interested in participating in the Rose Run, you can still 报名. Races include a 5k run/walk, 10k run and a 10-mile run.
