Event description

The 3rd annual memorial Fun Run / Walk and Knockout Tournament is scheduled for April 4, 2026 at Green Mountain High School in Lakewood, Colorado. The event combines a community 3.1 mile loop through the Green Mountain neighborhood with a playground-style Knockout basketball tournament and a range of drop-in activities.

The Fun Run and Walk follows a single 3.1 miles (5K) loop. Entry for the run or walk is listed at $25 per participant. All registrants receive a gift bag.

The Knockout tournament offers multiple rounds and several divisions organized by grade and gender, plus an open top flight division. Players may purchase a punch card for participation; a basic card and a card-plus option are offered, the latter including a T-shirt, prize drawing entry, and a goodie bag. Single rounds are available on-site. Winners from earlier rounds advance to division championship rounds where prizes are awarded.

Additional on-site activities include a silent auction, prize baskets, quilting, friendship bracelet making, mental health resources, merchandise, refreshments, and a food truck. Proceeds support a memorial scholarship fund that is projected to award nine scholarships totaling nearly $14,000 in 2026. The event also aims to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention and to promote the message YOU Are Enough. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
