Organiser's description

Dustin's Place Join the Journey is a morning of races for the entire family. We are adding an exciting addition this year - Themed race!!! With the date being May 4th - we will have a Star Wars themed race!!!!!

The morning will include a 1 mile family fun run and a professionally timed 5K road race with breakfast included again this year. Following both races we will have an awards ceremony. All proceeds from the event will go to Dustin's Place, a center for grieving children, teens, and their families to come together in their grief journey and walk with others so that no one has to grieve alone. As part of the mission of this race, we'd like to invite you to join the journey of our grieving families by purchasing a sign with your loved one's picture, name, and a verse or phrase on it during your race registration. These signs will line the race route and allow us all to remember we are not alone in this journey!
