Shrewsbury – On April 9, the Shrewsbury Public Schools will host its 10th annual Road Scholars 5K and One-Mile Fun Run, at 12 p.m., starting at Oak Middle School, 45 Oak St. Strollers welcome.

Over the past 10 years, the Road Scholars Race has had more than 3,000 runners raise over $70,000 for The Colonial Fund which supports innovative projects in Shrewsbury schools that would not be funded through any other means. Organizers are hoping to raise $10,000 in honor of the race’s 10th anniversary.

Prior to the race, there will be pre-race warmups and sponsor tables for training tips, coupons, specials and running gear.

Everyone who registers for the 5k will receive a special 10th anniversary tech t-shirt commemorating the race. All kids who run the one-mile will receive a finisher’s medal and the top three male and female winners in each age category will receive a race medal as well as a gift certificate.

After the race, enjoy a snack from the food truck or join in a game of Frisbee, jump rope or hula-hoops.
