Calling all Happy Smackahs!

A positive attitude and an inner wellspring of joy are indefeasible allies when facing the adversities of life. The St. Vrain Happy Smackah 5K Fun Run / Walk was created to celebrate those virtues and honor St. Vrain Valley educator and Maine-native Dan Cribby. This year marks the third running of the event. So what's a Happy Smackah, you ask?

Simply put, a Happy Smackah:

• Lives with a positive attitude
• Lives a no nonsense, no excuses life
• Takes joy in life’s little treasures

And that's a beautiful thing. This year's Happy Smackah will take place on Saturday May 11th, 2013 at 8 AM at Lake McIntosh in Longmont, Colorado. Get out your running shoes, register early, and you'll be rewarded with a Happy Smackah event Tee Shirt. The website provides both online and offline registration options.
