The Latest Stories For You From Salem Reporter
Good morning, Salem.
It’s time to get ready to race.
The 2024 Awesome 3000 is accepting registrations. The annual fun run brings thousands of participants to McCullough stadium to compete and collect a new t-shirt.
This year, it’s on Saturday, April 27.
The race returned in 2023 after a hiatus due to Covid and the closure of the Salem-Keizer Education Foundation, which put on the event. United Way of the Mid-Willamette Valley has picked up the torch and raised over $45,000 for local schools through last year’s race.
You can register to race or volunteer online here.
