Hey-Hey-Hey!!! Let's Run A 5K!!!


Our annual 5K is this Friday, June 11th. Race starts at 8:00 AM.


It's not too late to register!


Join us for dinner and music the night of Friday, June 10th at the FTR SLC campus to kick off the event at 6 PM.


This year we will run in honor of Doug, FTR beloved treasurer who succumbed to cancer just after our 5K last year. Doug is hoping for a bright and sunny day. He was a source of light and still casts a long shadow. Come follow his path along the International Peace Garden. He'd smile to see you there. Be sure to laugh along the way!
