CMH Heroes for Hospice 5K/10K Run presented by Craig Lehman Shelter Insurance
First Saturday in May
Both courses begin in front of the CMH Community Rooms and conclude with a loop around Dunnegan Park. The race starts at 8:30 a.m. and is electronically timed for accuracy. The overall male and female winners in both races and the first-place male and female winners in each age division receive medals. We encourage participants to dress as their favorite superheroes! Walkers, strollers and pets are welcome.
The event benefits CMH Hospice. Caregivers help patients remain as comfortable as possible at home, or in a homelike setting, with family and friends. A bereavement program also provides support to the family after the death of their loved one. Proceeds from the race ensure that all terminally ill patients and their families receive physical, emotional, spiritual and bereavement care.
Sponsorship levels begin at $100. Download sponsorship information and a form to print, complete and send to the CMH Community Relations & Development office.
