Description

We're back with our spring 5k, which is always one of the best Friday nights of the year. The fun starts at 6pm with a group warmup led by our sponsors and longtime friends of the run club: Highlands Sport and Spine. At 6:30pm, we will set off on a 5k run or walk (or both!) down to the Platte River and back. All paces are welcome. Please note: this is not an officially timed event. After the run, we will have great beer on tap from Diebolt Brewing. In addition, there will be a local food truck and a raffle benefiting Girls on the Run. And of course, we will cap it off with a dance party DJ'd by DJ Shay. Raffle tickets will be sold on-site (1 for $5 or 5 for $20). 100% of raffle sales will be donated to Girls on the Run. About our charity partner: Girls on the Run is a non-profit supporting 3rd - 8th grade girls. The program cultivates mental, emotional, and physical skills that ultimately culminates in the girls completing a 5k of their own. It costs $195/season for a girl to participate, and several elementary schools in Sunnyside have participated in the program in the past, including Trevista. Our goal is to raise more than $2,500 here in 2023! If you would like to donate directly, you can do so with the following link: https://girlsontherunrockies.org/give/
