Daniel’s Race
August 13, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm
Timed Event
This 5K race is in remembrance of Daniel Myslivecek, who lost his battle with Melanoma at the age of 16. A friend of Daniel’s organized the first 5K in 2005 to help the family with medical costs. Daniel ran in that first race and died 4 months later from his illness. The 5K has continued with the support of our community and each year the proceeds are given to a family or organization that helps children with a life-threatening illness while heightening Melanoma awareness.
THE RACE WILL START DESPITE WEATHER AT 9:30am
