Details

Run and walk with purpose!  Come join us to help support our brothers and sisters in Haiti - the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Funds raised from this event are used to help pay for teacher salaries, purchase school textbooks, lunches and clothing for children, support the local medical clinic, and more for the mountain community of Grand Boulage, Haiti.
Participants may register to run or walk 3.1 miles, and our Kids Fun Run is available for those 12 and under as well!  Free Tech T-Shirts guaranteed to 5K runners & walkers registered by Sunday April 5th.  Overall male and female 5K winners will receive first place medals.  The top 3 finishers in each male and female age division will also receive division medals.
