A few weeks before the Easter festivities begin, the Jellybean Jog kicks off a season of warmer temperatures in Elkton on Saturday, April 1st. In one of the first weekends of the spring, you can enjoy a leisurely 5K jog or walk through a cute neighborhood right in your backyard.

The run/walk kicks off at 10 a.m. at 452 Bow Street, and you have two hours to complete the course at whatever pace you choose. The course is flat, and the surrounding neighborhoods are quiet, so the event is designed to be a relaxing affair. Best of all, your $20 registration fee will go back into the community. The Jellybean Jog raises funds for a local athletic association to use on fresh uniforms and sports equipment.
