The 5K race begins a half hour later and will take runners along Independence Oaks beautiful trails. A family fun zone and other activities for participants to enjoy will be on site for the duration of the race along with local animal businesses such as markets, groomers and more! The event will raise money through donations for Do Only Good Animal Rescue which helps to supports dogs at the Oakland County Animal Shelter.

Donations can be made to Do Only Good Animal Rescue, a foster-based local nonprofit, that facilitates the adoption of dogs at the Oakland County Animal Shelter. They provide shelter and care for over 4,000 animals each year and work hard to either reunite them with their owners or to find new, loving homes.
