Guns and Hoses 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run

Together with the Cherokee County Fire Department (Hoses) 
and the County Sheriff’s Department (Guns), Cherokee Recreation and Parks 
Agency will be hosting its 8th annual 5K Run/Walk and Fun Run. The 
purpose of the run is to raise money for charity causes selected by both 
groups. This year, the charity for CCFD will be The Goshen Valley Boys Ranch which is a non-profit home serving 
young men in the state foster care system. The charity for Cherokee Sheriff’s 
Office will be the Cherokee Sheriff’s 
Foundation
 which provides funding for charities and people in need locally 
in Cherokee County. When registering, you will pick the team that you want to 
represent and a portion of your fee will go towards their chosen charity. 
Moisture-Wicking shirts in red/gold for the Hoses and navy/white for the Guns 
will be made available in your race packet for all 5K participants only. (Shirt size selections will be guaranteed 
for those that register by January 31st ONLY)
. All 1 mile Fun 
Run participants will earn a commemorative medal. For the 5K race, awards will 
be given in both male and female divisions and in a variety of age groups as 
well. For questions contact Kate Borden at 404-445-6931 or
