Traffic Control Plan: Race route: The participants of the 5K will start in the parking lot of Woodland Trails. They will run through the trails and end in the parking lot of Central Lutheran Church. The 10K participants will start on the north sidewalk on School Street directly across the street from the parking lot of Central Lutheran Church. They will run west along School Street and turn north at County 1 and School Street. They will continue to run north on the paved path, along County road 1 past the golf course and enter the Woodland Trail Park system through the parking lot. They will then run through the trails and exit at the south end of the trails near Meadowvale School. From there they will continue back south on the paved path and side walk back to School Street turning eastbound and ending back into the parking lot of Central Lutheran Church. As mentioned above the race will start at 10:00 a.m. We anticipate the last runner to complete the course by 11:15 a.m. Participants and spectators will park and congregate on the property of Central Lutheran Church's grounds. The runners will be crossing two main roads. They will cross School Street at the beginning and ending of the race, and they will be crossing at the intersection of County Road 1 and Proctor Avenue, also at the beginning and ending of the race. Special city services requested would be for reserve officer police escort /traffic control at the above mentioned intersections at the beginning and ending of the race. Should you have any questions regarding safety or security for this event, our race security director is Keith Terlinden. For the enjoyment and safety of the participants, our team will provide 4 water stations along the race route. The first will be along the path in front of the Chuba Company. The second water station will be in the parking lot of Woodland Trails Park. The third water station will be along the path in the park. The final water station will be on the path near Meadowvale Elementary School. We will do the water stations the same way we have the past two years. We will be responsible for our own post race clean up.
