The 3rd Annual Michael Bazan Jimenez & Noah Lichwa Memorial Fun Run will be a fundraiser taking place on Winters Youth Day, April 25th, 2026 to help raise money for the Noah Lichwa & Michael Bazan Jimenez Memorial Scholarships. On June 9th 2022, we tragically lost two young men which effected our community deeply. We are bringing back this Youth Day Fun Run not only to raise money to benefit students at the local high school, but also to remember and honor the boys we lost that day. This will be a 5K fun run/walk, on April 25th, 2026 and starting at 7:00 AM. All funds raised will be given to the Scholarship and awarded at the Winters High School Senior Night. If you can't register on line, in person registration will take place on Friday April 24th from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at the Winters Community Center. All participants that register by Thursday April 2nd will be guaranteed a commemorative Noah Lichwa and Michael Bazan Jimenez Memorial Fun Run t-shirt. Participants who register after that
