Nipmuc Regional High School juniors Jeff Rogers and Conor Reilly, are continuing their brothers' successful charity road race - the Chipmunk 5K for ALS.

The 3.1-mile road race has been named “The Chipmunk 5K for ALS” after the successful Jimmy Kennedy “The Squirrel” Memorial Run for ALS held annually in Quincy in memory of Jimmy Kennedy, who died of ALS in 1997 at the age of 31. Daniel Reilly and Patrick Rogers, began the race because they selected this race as a community service project partly because of the Rogers’ family involvement in The Squirrel Run for seven years.
The event begins at 10 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 27th, with a rain/snow date of Sunday, February 28th, with registration at 9 a.m. Race entry is $10, and an application is available by emailing jeffrogers_2795@yahoo.com or www.theangelfund.org
