This Sunday February 9th is Academy Award Sunday. Martin Feinberg, Realtor, notes that it’s also the day of the 4th Annual Screenland 5K Run/Walk. The Screenland 5K has been held since 2017 to help raise money for the Culver City Education Foundation.
The race begins at 9:00 a.m. sharp so registered runners should arrive in the area early to navigate parking and arrive at the start line on time. The event also includes a costume contest for those runners who want to run in style.
Spectators are invited to stand along the race route to cheer on the runners during the race or visit Media Park in Culver/Venice to enjoy the entertainment and check out race exhibitors.
Race Officials also remind both participants and spectators that Culver Blvd. and other adjacent streets within the Culver City Real Estate area will be closed on Sunday from 6:00 a.m. to noon to accommodate the event. Cars that remain parked on impacted streets after 5 a.m. will be towed.
