Christina Latini Memorial 8K
The Christina Latini Memorial 8K is a community race held on March 13, 2027 at Grand Oak Elementary School in Huntersville, North Carolina. The event supports Operation Sweet Tooth, a nonprofit that raises funds, toys, personal items, and school supplies for children who are sick, impoverished, displaced, homeless, or otherwise in need.
Operation Sweet Tooth reports a fundraising goal of $10,000 and a current amount raised of $0.00. The organization describes past local donations including more than 5,000 toys, over 15,000 school supplies, snacks and gift cards, and 28 donated AEDs to schools and community organizations; one donated AED was used to save a life in North Mecklenburg Park on April 24, 2019.
Race categories listed include an 8K road race and a 2 Mile Walk. The 8K registration includes a race t-shirt; the 2 Mile Walk and virtual participant options do not include a t-shirt. Registration pricing rises in stages from early-bird rates to higher fees closer to the event. The event page notes that there are no refunds and that race management may cancel or modify the event for unfavorable conditions or acts of God.
The race uses Grand Oak Elementary School as its venue and presents itself as a local fundraiser and memorial event focused on providing material and medical support to children and local partner organizations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
