Get ready to have fun in teams--and compete in traditional races like the 3 legged race, egg and spoon race, sack race, etc. You can also get your face painted...enjoy some great music from our DJ...all at no cost.

This fun community event is brought to you by Team Frate Train--and a member of Team Frate Train will be kicking off the event for us. They will sound the horn to start the Field Day fun!

Please arrive at King Street Memorial Field at 11:00am on August 30th...we will team up and start right in for some Field Day Fun!

We will also have a chance for families to take the ice bucket challenge to benefit the Frates ALS Research and Support Fund.

The Frates Family has established the Frates ALS Research and Support Fund to provide funding for targeted ALS research and to help suport those afflicted with ALS that are in need. This fund was created to carry on Pete and Team Frate Train's mission to raise awareness and assist in discovering a treatment and cure for ALS.

The Event is a celebration of fun and fitness...and a great way to get together before heading back to school. We hope to see you there!
