The LKN Fall Beer Festival & 5k Run/Walk is here!! The event is presented by Cornelius Draft House and CREE Cares nonprofit. The race is one of our major fundraisers for the year. Our goal for 2025 is to put 250 kids into sports that are currently sponsored by Bags of Hope here in Lake Norman. Our financial goal is to raise $50k for 2025. That will get 250 kiddos playing sports that are currently not involved. PLEASE share this event in order to assist in hitting our mission!! Also, please save the date for our nonprofits Ugly Sweater event December 8th. https://runsignup.com/Race/NC/Cornelius/CarolinaUglySweaterRun Use promo code ugly30.
