It’s a costume party!
It’s a family reunion!
It’s a party in the park!
The annual Be a Hero 5K is all this and more! Open to runners and walkers of all skill levels, the 5K is a perfect event for families and friends.
Participants who earn “Superhero” status – by fundraising at least $100 – are given a special superhero cape they can choose to wear during the race.
