Join us July 12 for the Difani Memorial / Experience Independence 5K in historic Batesville. All proceeds from the race will go to the Byron Difani Memorial Scholarship Fund, to help local students just like those he had served so long and so well as educator, principal, and booster until illness took him. In conjunction with our competitive race, we also offer a "memorial walk" for an untimed procession for those not trained to race but wishing to honor his memory. We also have a donation-only option. Entry fee is $30.
We will have a special T-shirt for all entrants registered as of June 27, with overstock available on first come, first served basis thereafter until supply runs out. We will have awards for Top 3 Overall Men, Top 3 Overall Women, and top 3 medals in 10-year age groups.
With Riverside Park under construction, this year's course starts and finishes at Batesville Community Center and Aquatics. If construction reaches near the Community Center, our alternative site is Eagle Mountain Elementary start/finish. We plan packet pickup at the center (or the school) Friday, July 11, 4-7 p.m., and race day registration there 6-6:45 a.m.
The City of Batesville Parks Department provides your welcome site and awards venue. Centennial Bank is a major presenting sponsor and manager of the scholarship fund. The Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce encourages you to Experience Independence.
