runpage_image_2015

Central Oregon Shrine Club is back for year number five, including their amazing BBQ following the races! The 5K and 10K “Run for A Child” began as a way to create a “Central Oregon Shriners Day” where families could take part in a run or walk for an outstanding cause, and then enjoy a tasty BBQ. Sponsor booths will be set up, along with kid’s activities, prizes and a silent auction to round out a complete morning of family fun.

What really sets this event apart is how it benefits local kids who are not nameless faces, but are instead kids right here in Central Oregon, who a lot of times are at the races! More information about the run and Shriners can be found on their Facebook page. Check out this worthy cause!

When: Saturday, August 12th. Races start at 9am.

Where: Riverbend Park in Bend

Register: Online here; 5K = $40, 10K = $45.
