Join Sherwood Memorial Park for our 8th Annual Run for Donuts 5K and Fun Run on Saturday, November 2nd. Sherwood has chosen Ronald McDonald House Charities of SWVA as beneficiary of this fun, family event. Participants may run, jog, and even walk through the beautiful grounds at Sherwood Memorial Park in Salem. Strollers are welcome. The 5k will be timed by Mountain Junkies. Registration:https://runsignup.com/Race/VA/Salem/RunforDonuts5KandFunRunRMHC.
“Sherwood is pleased to provide an enclosed and beautiful setting for those wanting to honor loved ones while supporting a wonderful cause–It will be a great event!” stated Sherwood Memorial Park President, Susan Mini.
The Run for Donuts 5K and Fun Run will be supporting the programs of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southwest Virginia providing an environment of love, community, and hope to families of seriously ill children. RMHC-SWVA programs give a family with a sick child what they need the most – each other.
The first 200 people to register for either the 5K or the Fun Run will receive an exclusive race knit beanie cap. All participants will get to pick out a yummy donut from Dunkin’ Donuts to munch on at the finish line. Eating donuts isn’t required to complete either course; however, it will definitely be a lot of fun if people do! Participants are encouraged to dress up in their best donut attire to be entered in our “Best Costume Contest.”
Registration fee is $30 for the 5K and $20 for the Fun Run. The 5K race and fun run will start at 9:00am at the amphitheater in Sherwood (use Lynchburg Turnpike entrance).
