		Youth Fun Run Course This free fun run for ages 12 and under covers approximately ½ mile, and includes a goodie bag and free kid admission to the Folsom Zoo Sanctuary after the run. Kids start in the City Lions Park parking lot (located between the Folsom Library and Folsom Zoo Sanctuary), circle around the paved paths in the playground area, twist and turn on the paths through the center of the Zoo Sanctuary, back through the park, and finish near the awards stage. The course is fast, fun, and fabulous; what other time do you get to run through the center of the Zoo Sanctuary without someone telling you to “walk, please!”?
