Organiser's Description
HOW CAN I PREORDER A POINT5K TSHIRT? CHECK BACK SOON FOR DETAILS ONCE THE 2025 DESIGN IS CREATED!
WHAT IS IT? It's a (Point) 5 K run/ walk fundraiser to benefit the annual fund of the Rescue Mission of the Mahoning Valley.
WHY PARTICIPATE? Because up to 186 men, women and children seek shelter at our homeless shelter each night and hundreds visit us for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Your support makes a difference!
WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS EVENT? The Point 5k is a grand total of 1,640 feet (0.5K) and is a fun family event that everyone can enjoy. There is no type-o. We really mean just 1,640 feet! (Its just a little longer in distance than the Empire State Building is tall.)
HOW MUCH? Registration cost is extremely low to encourage families to participate. Just S5 per person. Fun elements will be added to the walk: like a donut stop at the half-way mark, a selfie station, oval point 5K car decals and more fun found on the farm.
WHEN & WHERE? Event is Saturday, July 12, 2025 at Whitehouse Fruit Farm in Canfield, Ohio with a 10am start. Free parking. It's a nice walk around the pond on the farm, so be sure to wear appropriate shoes.

Point 5k
Sat 12th July 2025 (10:00AM EDT)
$5.00
A point 5k is just 1,640 feet in length! (To give you perspective... a football playing field is 300 feet long, so just imagine walking the distance back and forth a little over 2 1/2 times! Or how about this? It's just a little more in length than the Empire State Building is tall! The Rescue Mission's point 5k course winds around the beautiful grounds and pond at Whitehouse Fruit Farm in Canfield, Ohio, with a stop 1/2 way for a complimentary donut! (you need your energy, right?) Here is the breakdown: * A 5k = 16,404 feet * A POINT 5k - 1,640 feet BIG DIFFERENCE! Join us for a fun time to help a great cause and support the up to 188 men, women and children who find shelter nightly at Rescue Mission of the Mahoning Valley. Your $5 registration gets you participation in the point 5k, a point 5k car decal and a White House donut! Please join us for some outdoor fun on the farm!
