TMCS has hosted the Annual TMCS Run for the Mums since 1978 and the race continues to be a popular event held during the same weekend as the Tipp City Mum Festival.
“The run will be held, rain or shine,” said Kathy Taylor, director of TMCS.
The race timing is done by Can’t Stop Running Co., and all results will be announced after the race at the Tipp City High School Football Stadium next to Tipp City Park. They will also be posted on the TMCS website and cantstoprunningco.com. The course runs through neighborhoods and along the Great Miami River Recreational Trial. All proceeds from the race help support the youth recreation programs offered by TMCS.
This year they are proud to have the support of our premier race sponsors: Meijer, Regal Rexnord, Arenstein & Andersen, Tipp City Mum Festival, and Abbott. Their generous contributions are a testament to their commitment to the community and the success of the Annual TMCS Run for the Mums.
