VIRTUAL OPTION  

 Dear Virtual Fast Flash Participant,
Our  annual Fast Flash is actually held in May. In 2020 we had to postpone the  event multiple times.  We were planning on hosting the event in 2021 on Saturday, July 31st. 

This is a option to the 

IN PERSON 

event being held in 2021

What does Fast Flash being a Virtual Race mean to me?

• This Friday, July 30th from 5:30-7:00 PM at the FCHS Freshman Academy, we will still hold packet pick up as planned. 
• Packet pick-up will be held at Door 15N, The FCHS Freshman Academy entrance (see attached PDF).
• All participants will receive a finishers' medal.
• Participants that purchased a shirt will receive their race shirt.   
• We will not be able to pass out awards for top finishers.
• Complete the race virtually sometime by noon on July 31st
• Have  fun, take pictures and post your pictures and completion of the Virtual  Fast Flash on social media and tag us on Facebook - @Franklin Township  Education Foundation, Twitter - @FTEconnect, or on  Instagram @FTEF_Connect using the hashtag  - #FastFlash.
