Chevron and Festival International would like to invite you to run, walk, skip or jump to the finish line at the Courir du Festival 5K Run! Bring your kids, co-workers and friends of all ages to downtown Lafayette on Festival Saturday! Meet us at Chevron Scène Héritage (on Jefferson Street, across from Chase Bank) on Saturday, April 24th at 8:00am for the 5K Run.

As part of the largest Francophone festival in North America, the race features La Virée (New Brunswick), dancing, food, drinks, art and more! The 5K course starts and finishes in downtown Lafayette, LA, the heart of Cajun Country; therefore we will be serving sumptuous Cajun and Creole delights, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and more!

Go to www.festivalinternational.com/race and you can register online. The registration form is so easy! All you have to do is enter your age on race day and your T-shirt size. That's right, and you'll get a cool Courir du Festival T-shirt as part of the package. This year we will offer a special Courir du Festival T-shirt! This t-shirt will be limited supply, so, sign-up early!

Race-Day registration will be held from 7-8:00am at Chevron Scène Héritage, so get there early to stretch, visit and enjoy the beginning of a great Festival day!

Pre-registration is only $20 per entry (must be postmarked or signed up online by Monday, April 19). Can't make decisions until the last minute? You can register the morning of the race for only $25 per entry! For more information please contact Ann Craig at (337) 781-5282.
