2nd Farragut Frosty 5K/Ride is Dec. 16

Farragut High School is planning for its 2nd Annual Farragut Frosty 5K and Ride.

The event, benefiting FHS’s Cross Country Team, is slated to take place between 8:50 and 10:15 a.m., Saturday, Dec. 16.

It was presented to the Board for approval because the school will be using streets in Village Green subdivision and Campbell Station Road, Town recorder Allison Myers said. She added Knox County Sheriff’s Office will help provide traffic control, and a nurse will be present for any medical issues.

“The applicant is proposing to use volunteers to mark the course,” she said.

“This is the 2nd Annual Farragut Frosty 5k held to raise funds for Farragut High School cross country teams,” said organizer Chelsea Osborne, head coach of those teams. “We have a route through Village Green that finishes, using the inside lane of Campbell Station back to the Village Green Shopping Center.”

The event is open to the public, she said in her application.

“Rainout cancellation decision will be made by 7 a.m., Saturday morning,” Osborne said.
