Simply put, we love our neighbors and we love being a part of the
greater Johns Creek community. We are always looking for reasons to
gather and ways to have some fun together, and we are always looking
for ways to pour back into the community we love so much. And so,
Johns Creek Baptist Church is happy to announce the 2nd ANNUAL _JCBC
JAUNT 5K AND 1MILE FUN RUN!_ Each year, proceeds from the race go to a
different community partner whose work beautifully impacts and
enriches community life. This year, proceeds will benefit AUTREY MILL

RACE DAY TIPS
After turning in to Cauley Creek Park from Bell Road, follow the signs
to the 5k Staging Area. There you will find event check in, parking
and bathrooms. Additional parking is available adjacent to the sports
fields - just a few hundred feet from the 5k Staging Area. Bathrooms
are also located at the sports fields.
WHY WE ARE SUPPORTING AUTREY MILL NATURE PRESERVE
Well...they're nice people. And they're cool. But more than that, the
Art Center loves our neighbors in some remarkable ways. In addition to
their many art classes and camps, the Art Center offers various
adaptive art enrichment programs to special needs persons and also to
Senior Citizens through programming at New Town Park. They offer
after-school art enrichment programming to 8 local elementary schools.
The Art Center works to build bridges between the many cultures and
ethnicities living in Johns Creek through art expressions and they are
no strangers to lending a helping hand to those who need it - and who
could use a little joy in their lives. Their work with the Drake
House, Lost & Found Youth, and Esther Jackson Elementary (Title 1) are
examples. Their community outreach programs are offered at no cost or
at an appropriately reduced cost to their participants...and Johns
Creek Baptist Church (and the whole JC community!) is pleased to have
a chance to help them out with the proceeds from the 1st Annual JCBC
Jaunt.
