CAK5K on the Runway

Join us for our FOURTH annual “Keyed Up 5k” walk/run on FRIDAY, April 24th, at 8pm, sponsored by the Vocal Patrons Association at GlenOak High School!

Our 5k is a relaxed evening event and walkers, joggers, and runners of all ages and abilities are welcome to join us! The 2026 edition features a return of last year’s popular "GLOW MODE", powered by neon, loud colors, and your own energy and style as you run, walk, or crawl along the course starting and ending at GlenOak stadium.

Back this year is the "fun run" for kids 12 and under who aren't ready to walk or run through the 5k!

This year we are moving away from timing all runners, and focusing on moving, music, and celebrating our choral arts programs together. The top 3 men and top 3 women runners will have recorded times and receive trophies, and all other participants will note their own times as they cross the finish line and join the celebration!

Vocal Patrons Association raises funds to support the vocal arts programs at GlenOak, and 100% of money raised goes to provide direct financial support for the choral programs throughout Plain Local Schools. We hope you will join us as we move in harmony together!

Organization:

This year the Rotary Club of Canal Fulton is celebrating its 99th year of living out the motto of "Service Above Self". It is during seasons of difficulty and uncertainty that civic clubs like Rotary are essential to come alongside those in need of a helping hand. To help support those in need as well as other community programs, we will again host our major fundraising event the Mother of All Races, a 5K and 10K race to be held on May 10, 2024, the Saturday before Mother's Day.

Over 90 percent of our Rotary's funding is distributed each year to those individuals in need, throughout our community.

Our primary source of revenue for these and other programs stems from the Mother of All Races 5k and 10k race. Donations can also be given donation link above, donations can also be made through the registration process.

The Bulldog Color Run at Green Middle School is a high‑energy, family‑friendly celebration of school spirit, fitness, and fun. Students, families, staff, and community members come together for a vibrant run (or walk!) through a course filled with bursts of bright, eco‑friendly color powder. Whether participants sprint, jog, or stroll, everyone crosses the finish line covered in color and full of Bulldog pride. This event isn’t about speed—it’s about community, movement, and memorable moments. Along the route, volunteers cheer runners on while color stations add excitement at every turn.

The Bulldog Color Run supports Green Middle School PTSA programs and encourages students to stay active while having a blast with friends and family.

Every participant will receive a shirt, medal, bag, sunglasses, bandana and individual color packet to start off the race with a burst of color!

Stop by after your run to check out our vendor tables and food trucks!

The Raider Run is a fundraising event that supports the Junior ROTC program at Green High School in Green, Ohio and is a fun family event for ALL!

The Raider Run consists of the following:

• 3K Terrain Run through Southgate Park with 12 obstacles that will test your strength and stamina....and when you make it to the end, you will be sliding down the GIANT 150 foot slip-n-slide! Two things are guaranteed: you will get messy, and you will HAVE FUN!

All ages are welcome, and accommodations will be available for anyone unable to complete an obstacle. Race participants will be sent onto the course every 15 minutes, and you may select your start time during registration.

• 1 mile Veterans Honor Walk -- If a leisurely stroll is more your style, sign up to participate in the 1 mile Veterans Honor Walk at 11am. This walk is dedicated to the men and women that have served our great country, and a portion of all proceeds will go directly to supporting local veteran organizations including SAM Center (Serving Area Veterans) and The Veterans Advisory Commission of Green.

And of course, you can always sign up to participate in both! If you select this option, you may select any available start time for the obstacle race, and will then walk the Honor Walk at 11am.

We hope you plan to join us for a fun day of music, games, exercise, and kicking off the start of summer for a great cause! We look forward to seeing you there!
