NEW CITY…..
STRONG COMMUNITY
• The 2015 Light Up The Corners races will attract
the competitive racer, the occasional runner,
students, young children, families, seniors, and
first time runners. The goal of the event is to
develop a strong sense of community pride,
promote physical fitness, and raise funds for the
“WHY IT MATTERS” campaign at The Fowler
Family YMCA which allows our local YMCA to
provide much-needed assistance and support to
at-risk children and families in our community.

When: August 15, 2015
Where: All races will start and end at THE FORUM
Who: 1,000+ runners and walkers
“WH ” IT MATTERS:
– All your tax-deductible donations go to the charitable annual campaign of the Fowler
YMCA – just one block away from The Forum in Peachtree Corners.
– When you sponsor this race, you invest in your community. When you give to the Y you
make a meaningful difference, not just in individual’s lives, but in the health and wellbeing of our community. All proceeds stay within the Peachtree Corners community to
help at-risk kids and struggling families participate in programs that help them to be
successful in school and life.
– Through adaptive aquatics for the disabled, pre- and after-school mentoring programs,
elder care, teen-focused social responsibility courses, job training, and many other
programs, you help children, adults, and families learn, grow and thrive. By giving
people the resources to help themselves, you empower them to improve their lives and
become assets to others and their community.
– This race will become a tradition at THE FORUM that grows in popularity and presence every
year and cements THE FORUM as the retail, business, and commercial center of our new city
of Peachtree Corners!
The 2014 race raised over $15,000 and helped
local, at-risk children and families participate in
the following life-changing programs and activities:
