Lilly’s Lope for Hope is an annual 5K race to raise awareness of youth suicide and provide hope for the future. Held annually in Philomath, OR, it honors the life of Lilly Stagner, a high school student who died by suicide in 2013. Proceeds from the event provide mental health counseling and suicide prevention education to Benton County youth.

The race will start at 10:00 AM. Participants may run, jog or walk the course through the quaint town of Philomath. Pre-race activities including on-site registration, a Silent Auction, and a Community Resource Fair start at 9:00 AM. A kid-friendly Fun Run starts at 11:30 AM.

EARLY BIRD registration will close at midnight on Saturday, Sept. 30.
