A new event is being held this year in conjunction with the Red River County Historical Society 39th annual Fall Bazaar on Saturday, Oct. 6.
The 5K/1M run organized by the Clarksville ISD is an attempt to restore a sense of pride, create student ownership and responsibility, and provide a fun service for our community, according to Supt. Kermit Ward.
The cost of this event is $15, and that will cover the cost of refreshments for participants, T-shirts, supplies, and medals for division winners.
“Please come out and support your local school district and city,” said Ward.
The run starts at 8:30 a.m. and the walk at 8:40 am.  Participants should arrive early to check in. T-shirts will be available on site for those who pre-registered.
The starting line will be at the northeast corner of the downtown square, at Broadway and Locust.
The route is as follows:
 - Proceed south on Locust to Main (Highway 82).
 - Right (west) on Main and proceed to Industrial Blvd.
 - Right on Industrial and proceed north to Patman Dr.
 - Right on Patman and proceed east to MLK.
 - Right on MLK and proceed south to Stacey Dillard Blvd (SDB).
 - Left on SDB and proceed east to Cedar St (Hwy 37).
 - Right on Cedar and proceed south to Broadway.
 - Left on Broadway and proceed east to the finish line at Broadway and Walnut.
The one-mile route will be available Saturday morning.
“The success of this event depends entirely on you and your participation,” said Ward.
