Northside Elementary hosting Pumpkin Prance

A Seneca elementary school hosts a fun way to be active and raise money for students at the same time on Saturday, Oct. 28, explains Northside Elementary School Bookkeeper Shawn Smith. “It’s our 12th annual Pumpkin Prance. We have a one-mile fun run or the Northside 5K, which is a certified course. It happens on Oct. 28, at 8:30am. The start and finish line is here at the school. There will be prizes awarded in different age groups. It is $15 pre-registration fee or $20 day of race for the 5K and then the one-mile is $10 preregistered or $15 day of race. You can do both for $20 pre-register or $30 day of race. T-shirts are available to all runners and they are also for sale if you don’t want to run and just want to buy a t-shirt.” The course travels along beautiful Lake Keowee. Registration takes place Saturday, Oct. 28, at 7am or you can sign up at the school during normal hours. Northside Elementary School is located at 710 North Townville Street in Seneca.
