Description
1st Annual Back to School 5K Run/Walk
Lace up and make an impact at our 1st Annual Back to School 5K Run/Walk! This fun, family-friendly event brings our community together to help local students start the school year prepared and confident. Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities are welcome—whether you’re aiming for a personal best, walking with friends and family, or simply coming out to support the cause. Strollers are encouraged, and everyone is welcome.
Participants who register by 12:00 PM on July 4, 2026 will receive an event t-shirt and finisher medal. Registrations received after this deadline are still welcome but will not include these items.
Each participant will also receive a refreshing Dole Whip soft serve from Pineapple Dream—perfect for celebrating at the finish line!
Participants are encouraged to bring donations of school supplies and new or gently used shoes to support children in our community. Every mile you complete—and every item you give—helps provide the essentials students need to succeed in the classroom and beyond.
Together, we’re putting sneakers on their feet, supplies in their hands, and smiles on their faces.
We can’t wait to see you at the starting line!
