Organiser's Description
HELLO RUNNERS!
Welcome back for another year of our HOLIDAY HUSTLE 5K FUN RUN/WALK! This year our committee has chosen a Non-Profit foundation called SUSAN'S MISSION out of Morris, IL. Susan's Mission focuses on Special Olympic Team Sports and the inclusion of all. It is their mission to bring awareness to not only special olympics as individual events, but team ones as well. They founded just two years ago and have been hosting a Christmas Holiday Basketball tournament each December at Saratoga school. This is their biggest event and is expected to grow each year. Last year they had 22 teams from around Illinois come and compete in their tournament! We are hoping to raise enough money for them to cover all costs for this event any others they may have in the future! For their sports seasons and at this holiday tournament, Susan's Mission makes everything available to all players at no cost. They hosted this whole event, food for athletes and coaches, completely free. With generous donations from you, this will be another successful event for Susan's Mission.
