Get into the Fall spirit and run the annual GC Young Life Fall Costume Fun Run! No worries if you don't run, bring the whole family to walk or roll! We will have candy to give out to all kids who participate in our 1 mile walk or roll. Come decked out in your best costume and you could be the winner of the costume contest. Proceeds from this fundraiser go towards program costs for our local Young Life clubs, start up expenses for new clubs, and helping kids have life-changing experiences at one of our Young Life camps. Middle school students, high school students, students with pecial needs and teen moms are able to get away from the pressures of everyday life, have adventure and fun with friends and Young Life leaders, and hear the message of God's love in terms they can understand.

Money should never be the reason kids miss out on the best time of their lives. Young Life is committed to raising money for this cause and helping give kids ownership of their trips.
