Run for Buddies Benefit Race to Be Held Saturday

Moore Buddies will hosts its second annual Run for the Buddies Saturday.

The 5K and 10K runs begin at 11 a.m. at O’Donnell’s on East New Hampshire Avenue in Southern Pines.

Registration is from 9 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. at O’Donnell’s. Participants can register in advance online at www.moorebuddies.com, or by calling Patti Jilson or Warren McSweeney at 693-1789.

The registration fee is $30 and all proceeds benefit Moore Buddies Inc., a private nonprofit agency in Moore County working directly with the county’s juvenile court system to provide support for troubled youths.

Moore Buddies offers programs to youths between the ages of 7 and 17, such as the Governor’s One-On-One Volunteer Program that matches kids with adult volunteer mentors who give their time to a youth for one year.

The agency also offers classes for substance abuse, anger management, tutoring and community service activities.
