Jonquil City Jog
Okay, so if you’re going to be eating all that festival food at the Smyrna Spring Jonquil Festival, then you may want to consider getting up a little earlier and getting in a bit of exercise. And I have just what the doctor ordered. The Jonquil City Jog 2011 is right around the corner and is great way to kick off the festival at the end of the month.
At the Jonquil City Jog 5K participants run (or walk) for fun, education, and PIE at this annual race for education held in downtown Smyrna. Proceeds benefit the Campbell High School Educational Foundation, Inc. – a non-profit organization that provides financial and community support to Campbell High School students. Campbell High School is a recipient of a Georgia School of Excellence award and has an outstanding International Baccalaureate program.
The Jonquil City Jog will be on Saturday, April 30, 2011, starting at 8:00 AM, starting at Smyrna City Hall, which is located at 2800 King Street, Smyrna, GA 30080.
