BRUNSWICK — The Coastal Youth Orchestra 5K and Fun Run, “Go for Baroque … out and Bach,” is scheduled to be held on Sunday.

The 5K course is an out and back run and is generally flat and scenic.

The race starts at the intersection of Old Pennellville and Pennellville Roads, taking Pennellville Road to a right onto Pennell Way, out to Simpson’s Point Road to the end before returning to the start.

The race is being held by the Coastal Youth Orchestra and will benefit the organization’s music programs and summer music camp scholarship fund for youth in the area.

CYO musicians will be playing music at the start, post race and at each mile marker.
