This year's overall champion trophies for top male and female finishers are very much in the Hootin an Hollarin spirit. The wooden outhouses were design and crafted by Todd Friese at the Bargain Bin, located just off the square in Gainesville. Sign up forms for this year's 5k race can be picked up at the Shelter office or the Ozark County Times office.

Pick up a registration form at Shelter Insurance, which is sponsoring the event, or the Ozark County Times office. Mail the completed form to Doug Hawkins, Shelter Insurance, P.O. Box 115, Gainesville.
