Join us Saturday, April 18th for the 10th Annual Run with the Heroes, a milestone celebration where every step truly makes a difference. To honor 10 incredible years, we’re excited to introduce a brand-new 10K alongside our 5k and quarter-mile Family Walk. When you run, walk, or roll, you’re supporting George’s Pass—a life-changing program that creates sensory-safe, inclusive experiences for special needs children in hospitals and throughout our community. Your participation helps kids feel seen, safe, and celebrated exactly as they are.
This year, we’re honoring the Heroes Among Us—healthcare professionals, first responders, and everyday heroes. Come dressed as your favorite superhero, light up strollers and wheelchairs, to shine a bright light on inclusion for kids of ALL abilities. Bring the whole family and enjoy a sensory-friendly carnival, food, fun activities for all ages, and the chance to connect with organizations dedicated to supporting children with special needs. Run with purpose. Celebrate inclusion. Be a hero.
Sign up today and help us create a world where every child belongs.
