Dart for Head Start Run and Walk

The Dart for Head Start Run and Walk is the third annual community running event organized by the Ohio Valley Educational Foundation. It takes place at Tom Sawyer Park in Louisville, at 3000 Freys Hill Rd, and offers multiple event options for participants and families.

The event includes both a 5K run and a 1 mile walk, plus dedicated divisions reserved for Head Start families. It is a chip-free fun run that uses personal recording at the finish for unofficial times; a large timing clock will be displayed. On-site activities include a DJ, yard games for children, and a nearby playground.

One hundred percent of the proceeds are directed to support the Head Start program, which provides early childhood education, health services, and family support to promote school readiness and healthy development. The event description emphasizes community participation and family-focused activities, with options suitable for a wide age range.
