Participation includes options to fundraise through a personal fundraising page, and donations, virtual participation, and sponsorship opportunities are part of the event structure. Funds raised support free programs offered at GiGi's Playhouse Canton.
The event program features a kids dash, a walk for acceptance, participant awards for top runners and fundraising champions, and family-friendly activities such as games, face painting, and crafts.
