Fostering Hope 5K
The event is a community race day at White Hall Park in Richmond, Kentucky, that benefits Orphan Care Alliance. It includes an in-person 5K Run/Walk, two children’s fun events, a virtual 5K option, and volunteer opportunities. The 5K course runs on paved trail and roadway surfaces through White Hall Park. Dogs on fixed-length leashes and strollers are permitted on the 5K course.
Registrants for the in-person events receive a commemorative T-shirt; registering by August 9 ensures a T-shirt. The Kid’s 1/4 Mile Dash is an untimed event for children age nine and under; participating children receive a commemorative participation medal. The Kid’s 1/4 Mile Ride on Toy Race is an untimed event for children who bring a 6- or 12-volt ride-on toy; there are no prizes for that event. The Virtual Runner/Walker option allows participants to complete a 5K remotely and receive a commemorative shirt while supplies last; the virtual option includes a donation that covers postage.
Awards are presented to top finishers overall and medals are awarded for top finishers in age brackets. Additional features listed for race day include free race photos, food, music, team registration with a prize for the largest team, a referral refund program, and manual timing.
