Bring your family and friends to come support your community in the Royal Family Superhero one-mile Fun Run, 5K and 10K! Royal Family Kids (RFK) is a ministry that organizes a summer camp for foster children in our area. They provide life changing moments for children of abuse and neglect, helping them flourish and begin trusting adults again. For a week of the summer they get to have fun, learn about Jesus, and make meaningful connections with other children and camp leaders.
Foster children often find themselves on paths of academic failure, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, sex trafficking, homelessness and incarceration. Royal Family Kids is an organization with a goal to interrupt these cycles and show children a different path. A highlight of the camp is "everybody's birthday party" where every child gets celebrated with a party complete with games, cake, and presents. We know that one week can make a difference in the life of child!
Your participation in this event provides you the opportunity to be a true Superhero. Your entire registration fee goes directly to RFK, Pasco to help pay the way for these children to attend camp.
All are welcome to come dressed as your favorite superhero, and participate in the One Mile Fun Run, and costume contest. At the start/finish line there will be food truck vendors, face painting, balloon making, and music! Awards and recognition will be given to the top 3 finishers of all events in each gender. The 10K participants will be greeted with a medal at the finish line.
All of the races will start at the Columbia Park bandshell near the Playground of Dreams in Kennewick and run west along the river towards Richland. All races will be an out and back, and there will be aid stations at the 1 mile, 5k, and 10K turn around points with water and gatorade hydration.
