The West Kentucky Community and Technical College (WKCTC) campus will be closed to traffic for a 5K Run on November 2 between 3:30 and 6 pm.

The public is invited to participate in the annual fundraising event titled, "Take Back the Night," which is sponsored by Alpha Epsilon Beta (AEB), WKCTC's local chapter of the American Criminal Justice Association.

The event will include a 5K race, a 5K walk and a one-mile Fun Run for children ages 12 and under. Awards will be given to the top three in each category.

"This year we've added a fun twist," said AEB advisor Leslie Page. "We've added to the title of the event, now called "Take Back the Night Bacon Run." We will have bacon stations throughout the race where participants can win bacon prizes, added Page. "We want the 5K runners to run like there's bacon at the finish line; the winner of the 5K run will be crowned "The Baconator!"

Preregistration is $25 by October 25 and includes an event t-shirt. Late or race day registration is $30. The fee for the one-mile Fun Run is $12 without a t-shirt and $17 with a t-shirt. All proceeds benefit AEB and the Paducah Child Watch Children's Advocacy Center. No refunds can be given and entries are non-transferable. No pets, bikes or skates allowed on the course.

Participants can register at the Anderson Technical Building on the WKCTC campus beginning at 2:45 pm on November 2. The race begins at 4 pm.

A registration form is available through the event's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/#!/events/492145380880455.
