Community Options is organizing 47 Cupid’s Chase 5K races across the United States on Saturday, Feb. 10, to benefit people with disabilities, and one of those races will run through the Lake Arthur Golf Club in Franklin Township.

Check-in for the Butler County race starts at 8:30 a.m., and the race will start at 10 a.m.

The runners will start at the golf club before heading east toward Unionville Road. They will then head back to the golf club, turning around at the intersection of Country Club Road and Isle Road, before finishing back at the golf club.

People who register in advance for the race are given their choice of a red or a white T-shirt. Those choosing a red T-shirt indicate they are spoken for romantically while those picking a white T-shirt are indicating they are available.

All participants will receive an official Cupid’s Chase drawstring bag, and those who finish the race will receive a finisher’s medal. The top three overall male and female finishers will receive a trophy.

Community Options was founded Feb. 9, 1989. The mission of the nonprofit is to develop housing and employment supports for persons with disabilities.

The nonprofit holds the annual race on the Saturday closest to Valentine’s Day.
