6 events in Bozeman, Montana

Come support Cancer Support Community Montana at their annual fun run to support Pediatric Cancer!

Sunday, March 1st- 11am start

We have both 5k and 1 mile races!

Plenty of fun, food and a raffle following the Fun Run! Free hot dog and chips!

With your participation in this event, you will be supporting the families of the children right here in Montana that have been diagnosed with pediatric cancer.

Cancer Support Community Montana (CSCMT) is a 501c3 non-profit organization based in Bozeman, Montana, and part of the national Cancer Support Community network. Established in 2004, CSCMT has a long history of providing support for those impacted by cancer in Montana. Now with two thriving chapters in Bozeman and Missoula and a chapter in development in Helena, CSCMT delivers over 60 programs and classes a month to individuals and families impacted by cancer across the state. Best of all, these services are always completely free of charge, and they are offered in-person, online and in a hybrid platform – all with laughter, joy, connection and hope.

In 2025, Cancer Support Community Montana took on the mission of the Lightwell Foundation, a pediatric cancer organization serving the Gallatin Valley. As a result, CSCMT established a dedicated Pediatric Cancer Fund to support children with cancer and their families across the state. Because most pediatric oncology care requires out-of-state treatment, families often face overwhelming travel and lodging costs. This fund helps reduce those financial barriers so children can access the care they need.

With that said, your support is still critical to helping these families, and it is our sincere hope that you will participate in this super fun event! We will be meeting at the Rocking R Bar in downtown Bozeman. In person registration will open at 10am and the race will then kick off at 11am with the start being BEHIND the R Bar in the alley!

Thank you so much to our incredible sponsors of this event: Old Mill Homes, Bozeman Running Company, Rocking R Bar, and Hail Mary's
