The 18th annual Father Judge Crusader Classic 5K will take place on Sunday, Oct. 3, at 9 a.m.

All proceeds will benefit the Firefighter Lt. Robert Neary Scholarship Fund at Father Judge High School.

Fire Lt. Bob Neary, class of 1970, passed away on April 9, 2012. That day, he responded to a fire at an abandoned Kensington warehouse. Later, he and several other men from Ladder 10 were checking on conditions at a furniture store next door when the roof collapsed.

The entry fee is $30. The cost is $15 for youths 18 and under.

Race-day registration will take place in the Father Judge school yard beginning at 7:30 a.m. Event T-shirts will be provided to all who pre-register (and to race-day registrants while supplies last).

The race will begin at the bandshell in Pennypack Park and continue along the banks of the Pennypack Creek and finish with a lap around the Father Judge track (behind the school). Medals will be presented to the top three male and female finishers in each age group.

For more information, call 215-338-9494 , Ext. 1129 or email [email protected].
