This is Team Elms’ 9th year participating in this wonderful event and we hope that you will join us.
We are hoping to win Most Funds Raised so please begin your fundraising efforts immediately. We’ve won awards in the past but as the event gets bigger, the competition grows too. We are working to raise money for this incredible organization & that’s what matters most!
#LegendCares
Please forward this information to your friends, family, vendors, residents or anyone else that might want to join Team Elms.
Everyone is welcome…young children in strollers, dogs on leashes, competitive and noncompetitive runners and walkers.
After you register for the race, you can start fundraising. Our goal is to raise $3,500 this year and I know that, together, we can do it!
Originally called “Kaps for Kids,” more than 20 years ago this event began as a walk hosted by an alumni family. Then, 10 years ago, a running component was added and the Red Shoe 5k became our signature event. It has continued to grow ever since! While there have been different names and different locations, it always has the same goal at its heart.
While this year may look different, the purpose is the same – to give our community a way to come together (virtually), show support for, and make a positive impact on the families served by RMHCDC. Please join us for our 10th anniversary and biggest year yet!
Once you register, watch your email for links to your Virtual Goodie Bag, playlists, color-your-own mile markers, and more. We’ll also have polls, games, and other ways to win prizes on our Instagram and Facebook pages.
