This meaningful run raises vital funds for dementia care services at McCormick Care Group, ensuring that individuals and families continue to receive the high-quality care, support, and compassion they deserve.
Whether you’re running in memory of a loved one, in support of a caregiver, or simply to make a difference, every step you take matters.
All participants will receive a race t-shirt, finisher’s medal, and swag bag, and are invited to enjoy a post-race BBQ. After the run, stick around for family-friendly activities including a Kid Zone, a wellness fair, and a celebration and award ceremony honoring top finishers and dedicated community members.
Run with purpose. Run for care. Run for Maggie.
