2026 Point 5K FAQ
Rescue Mission of the Mahoning Valley
Saturday, July 11, 2026 | 10:00 AM
White House Fruit Farm, Canfield, Ohio
Can I preorder a Point 5K t-shirt to pick up at the event?
Yep! More details to come once we design the 2026 shirt!
What is the Point 5K?
The Point 5K is a lighthearted, half-kilometer (yes, 0.5K!) walk/run event supporting the Rescue Mission of the Mahoning Valley. That’s just 1,640 feet—a little longer than the Empire State Building is tall. It’s designed to be a short, family-friendly event with a big impact.
Why participate?
Every night, up to 186 men, women, and children rely on our shelter, and hundreds more come to us daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. By joining the Point 5K, you’re helping provide meals, shelter, and hope to those in need.
What makes this event unique?
Let’s be honest: most 5Ks are "too long" lol. This walk/run is only half a kilometer—short and sweet! Plus, we’ve added fun twists, including:
A donut stop at the halfway point
A selfie station
A Point 5K sticker cling for all participants
Family-friendly fun all around the farm!
How much does it cost?
Just $5 per person! We want to make sure families and groups can join in the fun without breaking the bank.
When and where is the event?
Date: Saturday, July 11, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM start
Location: White House Fruit Farm, Canfield, OH
Parking: Free and available on-site
Route: A scenic walk around the pond, so wear comfy shoes
Are pets allowed?
Unfortunately, White House Fruit Farm does not allow pets on the property. Service animals are permitted in accordance with ADA guidelines.
Can I help raise more money for the Mission?
Yes! You can sign up as a fundraiser when you register and share your personal fundraising link with friends and family. Every dollar raised helps support life-changing services at the Rescue Mission. Need help getting started? Call us at 330-744-5485 x503—we’d love to help.
Will there be same-day registration?
We recommend registering in advance to guarantee your goodies! It makes our development team super nervous not to know exactly how many donuts to pre-order from White House, so it helps to have folks preregistered.
Is this event timed or competitive?
HaHa! Nope! This is a just-for-fun event. No timing chips, no medals—just a great time for a great cause. There are some people who choose to run and we make sure that they are at the line first and clear out to make room for everyone who wants to just enjoy the simple walk on the farm.
What should I bring?
Comfortable walking shoes that are appropriate for the farm (they may get a little dirty if the ground is wet)
A fun attitude
Water bottle (but we’ll also have a hydration station)
Your camera or phone for those great photo ops!
Is the event stroller-friendly and wheelchair-accessible?
Mostly! The route around the pond and in the tree area is grass and accessible for strollers and wheelchairs when the ground is hard and dry. It is an outdoor path, so please plan accordingly based on weather and terrain. And even if the ground is soft, there is plenty of fun near the starting line with music, a selfie station, and more!
Who can participate?
Everyone! Kids, teens, adults, grandparents—all ages are welcome. The more, the merrier!
More questions?
Give us a call or email. 330-744-5485 X 506 or [email protected]

Benefiting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society!
CATHY'S STORY
Cathy's journey with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma began in Feb 1996, six years before her official diagnosis. In
1996, she raised $3200 for LLS, possibly sensing her future battle. In Nov 2011, she developed symptoms and
underwent treatment at Cleveland Clinic from 2012 to 2013, managing chemo and hair loss. She never
complained and continued to work full time and teaching reading to underprivileged children one day a week
during her scheduled lunch. And she continued to run at least 20 to 30 miles per week.
In Dec 2013, Cathy opted for an aggressive bone cell transplant. Despite the three-week sterile procedure, she
remained active, walking the halls, spreading smiles, and resumed work and her normal physical activities, which
included running, hiking, water aerobics, and yoga,post-release.
2014 brought ups and downs. Although she did not receive any further chemo, she required periodic scans and
remained on medication for her lymphoma. Her attitude was great and Cathy managed a trip to New Hampshire,
where she hiked to the top of Mount Washington. In the fall she hiked Sedona and the Grand Canyon.
In 2018, a scan revealed aggressive lymphoma B-cells, leading to a CART T Cell procedure in Columbus for three
weeks. Cathy's resilience was evident as she exercised daily, read books, and attended events during recovery.
2019 to July 2023 involved emotional roller coasters with drug trials and chemotherapy, leading to hospital
stays. Cathy's unwavering faith, commitment to Mass, and plans for future activities showcased her courage.
Her greatest hope was to witness her eldest granddaughter’s wedding day someday.
Despite her challenging "fight," Cathy embraced life, served others, and raised thousands of dollars for LLS to
help other people. Sadly Cathy lost her fight and she symbolically transitioned from bearing her "cross" to
wearing her "crown."

It's back! The 11th Edition of the SHORE 2 SHORE cycling classic. This unique format allows cyclists to experience mixed routes comprising paved and gravel surfaces throughout Windsor/Essex and Chatham/Kent. Choose from an approximate 60 km or 120 km distance in either a TEAM or SOLO format.
TEAM OPTION - 120 km Route Only.
Start Time - 9:05 am first team depart. Staggered starts for remaining teams. Official start times announced the week prior.
Gather 5 to 10 riders of your choosing to tackle the course. Whether you ride it at a leisurely pace, or try to cover the distance quickly, the key is to work together throughout the duration.
Results based on WHEN you finish, not how fast you finish.
SOLO OPTION - 60 km OR 120 km Route.
Start Time - 9:00 am for 120 km. 10:45 am for 60 km.
Prefer to ride it as an individual? Set off on an adventure and ride the course at your own pace.

REGISTRATION INCLUDES:
Unique & scenic routes
Pre ride caffeine courtesy of Red Lantern Coffee Co.
Post ride food & beverages
On course support w/ aid station
Pledge incentives for top fundraisers and raffle prizes (more to come!)
FAQ's:
Style of route? Expect both routes to comprise approximately 30% gravel.
Are the routes marked? Both routes will be sent in a GPX file to all riders the week before the event. This will allow turn by turn navigation when paired with a bike computer.
Type of bike? Both road and gravel bikes are suitable, but tire choice will be more critical. Since the majority of the route is paved, a slick tire between 28c - 35c will be most efficient.
On course support? Individuals and teams are expected to be mainly self-supported. Carry repair kits for flats. There will be one aid station on the course for fuel and hydration. Riders wanting specific items can have them transported to the aid station (drop off items for transport at check-in).
