Race Benefactor
As a non-profit serving the children in Wake County schools, Note in the Pocket started with a simple mission: To Clothe Children in Dignity and Love. Note in the Pocket believes that it is unacceptable that children are limited in their educational and social development because they do not have appropriate clothes for school. In 2018, Note in the Pocket received clothing requests for 4,381 individuals, mostly children, throughout all twelve cities and towns in Wake County. NITP has served nearly 20,000 individuals since receiving our 501C3 status in 2013.
THE COURSE AND PARKING INFORMATION
This fast and rolling course, certified by the US Track & Field Association, goes through one of North Carolina's most beautiful parks, Dorothea Dix Park. As Raleigh’s largest park, Dorothea Dix Park has over 300 acres of rolling hills with enough history to fill a museum! Along the way, you will enjoy a beautiful tree-lined course and catch a great view of the downtown Raleigh skyline. The course will include 1 hydration stop with both a water and sports drink option.
