Be the Light - Glow in the Dark 5K
The Be the Light - Glow in the Dark 5K is an evening athletic event held at Moran Park in Holland, Michigan. Participants gather at the intersection of 21st Street and Maple Avenue to complete a course focused on mental health awareness. The event supports Beacon of Hope, a non-profit counseling agency that provides services at no cost to those in need.
The event features one primary distance:
- 3.1 Miles (5K)
Registered participants receive a commemorative shirt, with specific sizes guaranteed for those who complete their registration by mid-August. Check-in and late registration are available on the day of the event at the park location. The initiative aims to raise funds specifically to provide individual counseling sessions for families and individuals facing various challenges.
The run highlights the importance of mental and physical well-being while spreading information about available local resources. Proceeds from the registration fees and additional donations help remove financial barriers for those seeking professional support. The course is set in a public park environment, and the glow-in-the-dark theme provides a distinct atmosphere for participants as they complete the 3.1 mile distance.
