Commack Coalition of Caring 5K Coming

Registration is now open for the annual race to prevent drug abuse.

Registration is now open for the third annual Commack Coalition of Caring Red Ribbon Week 5K Run/Walk to be held at Commack High School Oct. 26.

The Commack Coalition of Caring is a community group, which focuses on helping to prevent substance use and abuse through educational programs and activities in and around the Commack community. 

Through participation in our events, the coalition hopes that community members will gain access to the tools and resources needed to make healthy decisions in their lives.
