Registration open for Marianas Sunset Fun Run
Registration is now open for the Marianas Visitors Authority’s Marianas Sunset Fun Run on Jan. 20, 2016, marking the end of the yearlong celebration of the office’s 40th anniversary.
Registration forms are available at www.mymarianas.com under the NMI Events Calendar and on the homepage.
Registration is $5, and proceeds of the event will benefit the Dog Control Program of the Saipan Mayor’s Office, which helps control the stray dog population.
Four-legged friends on leashes are welcome at the event, which will begin at 6pm (registration on run day begins at 5pm) at Garapan Fishing Base, with the turnaround point at the Japanese tank at Quartermaster Road.
“The Marianas Sunset Fun Run is a chance to come together and celebrate tourism and the MVA, all for a good cause,” said MVA Community Projects manager Martin Duenas. “For coordination purposes, we encourage runners and walkers to register before Jan. 20 so we can prepare adequately. Also, we thank all our community partners that are coming out to support the MVA as we wrap up our yearlong 40th anniversary.”
T-shirts provided by the MVA and TanHoldings Corp. will be distributed to registrants while supplies last. Taste of the Marianas tokens will be awarded to the first five male and first five female finishers. Also, the first 40 registrants under 18 will receive a Saipan-da backpack.
Cash and company checks are accepted, and checks should be made payable to the Marianas Visitors Authority. For more information, contact MVA Community Projects specialist Ed Diaz at ediaz@mymarianas.com or 664-3200/01. (MVA)
