Bahia Shrine 5K Camel Walk/Run

Light the Path: Fun Run and Walk brings our community together in a vibrant, family-friendly experience focused on child safety, prevention education, and hope.

This inaugural event shines a light on the importance of awareness, education, and strong support systems for young people.

Funds raised directly support Paving the Way Foundation’s prevention education programs, equipping children, families, and educators with the tools they need to recognize risks, build confidence, and make empowered choices. By participating you are not just supporting an event — you are helping protect children and strengthen the future of our community.
