PINELLAS COUNTY URBAN LEAGUE
28th ANNUAL CRIME PREVENTION RUN &
FAMILY FESTIVAL
SEPTEMBER 15, 2012
The Pinellas County Urban League’s Black-On-Black Crime Prevention Program will host its twenty-eighth(28th) annual crime prevention 5 kilometer (3.1 miles) run and festival on Saturday, September 15, 2012. Featuring live entertainment, free food, health screenings and social services information, door prizes and lots of laughter, the event continues a tradition of community involvement while evolving to include competitors from across the region.
This event, held in Childs Park and the surrounding community, promotes the theme “Crime Is Not a Part of Our Heritage” and symbolically runs crime out of our neighborhoods. Mr. Watson L. Haynes, II, President/CEO of The Pinellas County Urban League says, "We want to keep the Crime Run as a community signature event. People look forward to it every year, and it brings us together. It is important for us, as neighbors, to spend time together in fellowship." The event is co-sponsored by area law enforcement agencies, local businesses, nonprofits and people who want to see our communities reach their full potential.
This year’s event offers a timed course using an urban walking trail and a portion of the Pinellas Trail. Additionally, a family-friendly walk to encourage healthy life styles has been included. Local and regional performers, amateur and profession, will provide the entertainment and are encouraged to call (727) 327-2081 extension 119 for information on participating in the event.
Founded in 1977, the Pinellas County Urban League is the premier social service and civil rights organization in Pinellas County. We are one of the national urban League’s network of non-profit, community-based affiliates located throughout the United States. The Urban League is a member agency of United Way since 1981. The League operates social service programs throughout Pinellas County and serves those in need of career development, education, employment services, tutoring, energy assistance, crime prevention services, health screening and education services and housing weatherization. More information about the Urban League can be obtained from our website, www.PCUL.org or by calling (727) 327-2081.
