It's A Wonderful 5K

It's A Wonderful 5K Revival! This race is a 3.1 mile loop that is open to runners and walkers. This race takes place in the early evening at Blue Spruce Park. The course will take you around the lake.  The goal for the revival of this annual 5K going forward is to give back to our community! Moving forward, our goal as a business is to find a person or family that has experienced any recent hardships and needs an extra helping hand. 

This year, 5K proceeds will go to the mother in-law of one of our very own GBM staff members.  On August 27th 2025, Dornie & Lori's House Day Care experienced a devastating fire which consumed Lori's childhood home and the Day Care space. Lori Nicely and her family/staff have been doing everything they can to get back on their feet, so we're here to help!
