Matawan Rotary 5K Run Walk Race


Saturday, July 21, 2007, Matawan Rotary had its 2nd Annual 5K Run Walk Race. This year's race was Certified. A great many sponsors contributed to the success of this event. Many volunteers from the Borough helped the Rotary make this event a success. The Matawan Rotary President, Rob Kee, III, donated on behalf of the Rotary a much needed Defibrillator to Matawan's Fire Department. Other donations to the Community to be announced at a later date by the Matawan Rotary. Awards were given out in six categories. This was a wonderful event enjoyed by runners, walkers, families and residents. All enjoyed the festivities before, during and following the race. Matawan's Police Department, Fire Department and First Aid Squads were all in attendance to lend a hand. Victoria House did blood pressure screening and Michael Mullaney, Ph.T. did pre/post stretching exercises for the participants.
More information on additional donations made by the Matawan Rotary will be provided when announced. Looking forward to next year's 5K.
