About the Jack Roberts Memorial 5K
The course runs through Leitersburg and finishes back at the Ruritan Park, where the race shares the grounds with the Peach Festival. The cause behind it is specific: proceeds support youth mental health and suicide prevention work, alongside a local scholarship fund named for Jack Roberts.
Packet pickup opens the day before at the festival's hospitality tent, near the main pavilion. On race morning, pickup and in-person registration move inside to the community center gymnasium.
