Join us for the Kansas Move with MADD & 5K on May 30, 2026, at Celebration Park in Gardner, KS!

Step out, speak up, and make every mile matter as we walk, run, and rally together to support victims and survivors of impaired driving. This family-friendly event brings the community together for a morning of inspiration, remembrance, and action, all while raising vital funds to help end impaired driving in Kansas.

Whether you’re running for a personal best, walking in honor of someone you love, or simply showing your support, your steps create real change. Enjoy a beautiful course through Celebration Park, meaningful pre-race activities, and a powerful sense of purpose from start to finish.

Move with MADD. Run with purpose. Make an impact.
