Parents, Highlight Sunday, September 21, 2008 on your calendars. This marks the day of the 13th Dollar Bank Junior Great Race. For only $5 (day of event registration is $7), register your junior athletes in this non-competitive race for children 12 and younger. This year's Junior Great Race will take place at Point State Park and on Ft. Duquesne Blvd.

GET SET…
Start setting examples for your children while they are young. Encourage them to participate this exciting day of family fun that promotes health and fitness. Parents can make this event more memorable for the kids by running with their children in the 1-Mile Fun Run, cheering them to victory in the 50-Yard Tot Trot or applauding their efforts in the Diaper Dash.

GO!
Beginning at noon the Dollar Bank Junior Great Race will be hopping. Children of all ages will enjoy meeting with favorite mascots, silly classes and face painters. The City of Pittsburgh Police, Fire and Emergency Units will be on site giving public safety lessons. Also, each registered child will receive a goodie bag. Plan to stick around for the post race raffle. Local retailers donated prizes for participants to win in the raffle.
