Our top racers today! Thank you to everyone who donated, participated in today’s event. Over $1500 was raised to support families of fallen soldiers and first responders!

Tomorrow is race day! Here are a few things for racers to know:

1. We ask that you show up a little early so that we can check you in. It should not take to long, we will check you off the list and ensure that you have signed the waiver. There should be plenty of parking at Canyon Glen, but we do ask that you carpool so we can save space.

2. The race will start at Canyon Glen Park and will go the Bridal Veil Falls and back. We will have volunteers placed along the route to ensure that you do not get lost and know when to turn around.

3. After the race, pancakes, juice and fruit will be served. We will also award medals to our top three male and female racers, and announce the winners of the raffle that will be taking place.


We look forward to seeing you and feel free to reach out with any questions.
