More than 500 people expected to participate in 5th Annual Mary Mingle 5K Race

CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KFVS) - More than 500 people are expected to participate in the 5th Annual Mary Mingle 5K Race.

According to a news release from the Community Counseling Center Foundation, the annual event will be Saturday, December 6.

Organizers say the race starts at 8 a.m. at Mary Jane’s Bourbon + Smokehouse. It will make its way through downtown Cape Girardeau and end at Minglewood Brewery, at the corner of Broadway and Spanish Streets.

The annual event supports the Community Counseling Center Foundation.

“We are anticipating over 500 registered participants, which will be the largest Mary Mingle in our history. Every single registration helps us bridge funding gaps and has an even more direct impact: each fee collected is designated to provide Christmas gifts for our 160 plus residential clients,” said Foundation Executive Director Michelle Ramsey. “The net proceeds from past races have seen incredible growth. The 2024 Mary Mingle 5K raised over $20,000, and with this record participation, we are highly confident the 5th Annual race will exceed that success, allowing us to expand vital programs and directly add to the quality of care for our clients.”
