Marlborough – The Immaculate Conception School held a family fun run/5k Oct. 25 to support the school.
This was the first time the school held an event of this nature and it was a great success, according to Linda Short, the school’s principal. Approximately 80 participants registered either as individuals or with their kids for the Halloween-themed fun run. Some runners had ties to school, while others simply came out to support the community. Despite being a timed run, this day was all about the fun. Children, and even some parents, dressed up as they made their way around the course.
Local sponsors also supported the event with food and drink and fun games for kids upon finishing the course.
The Immaculate Conception School, located at 25 Washington Ct., has 200 students in kindergarten through eighth grade.
