From the organizer
For this year's Miles for Mark 5k, we will return to Yankee Park for another evening Glow Run. We have a flat and fast course, all within the trail system at Yankee Park.
The Mark Andrew Kreusch Memorial Fund was founded by his family to honor Mark's life and spirit. Mark was four years old when his life suddenly ended in a boating accident on August 11, 2007. Mark loved his family, his friends, and embraced life by enjoying all that he did. His zest for life shined through his smile and giggle. Mark's parents vowed to keep his spirit alive by enriching the lives of other children. His family and friends miss him dearly. Their dream is to continue his legacy. Through various projects the fund will "Leave a MARK on a child's life" with all proceeds benefitting the Mark A. Kreusch Memorial Fund.
T-shirts are guaranteed to all those registered by April 3. Walkers welcome!! $100 Family Pricing for families of 5 or more...
Event day packet pickup and registration will start at 7:30pm at Yankee Park.
The Mark A. Kreusch Memorial Fund is a Component Fund of the Dayton Foundation. For more information on the Mark A. Kreusch Memorial Fund, please visit our website .
