Cotton Pickin' 5k & 1k Cotton Candy Fun Run

Join the fundraising fun by participating in the Cotton Pickin' 5k & 1k on Saturday, September 10!  Register now at www.fayettecares.org.

The 5k takes a scenic journey through the quaint roads of Somerville, TN, weaving through the pre-civil war monuments of the Somerville City Cemetery.  Unique cotton bale awards will be presented at the historic Somerville Courthouse where the Fayette County Cotton Festival kicks off with music, food, games, car show, heritage demonstrations, shopping and more.

At the awards ceremony, our online fundraisers will be recognized for their fundraising efforts with an award presented to the top individual fundraisers.  I would love your input to add an element of fun and help grow participation!   Email your suggestions to info@fayettecares.org.
