District 1-A Helen Keller Run
This event is a 5K run and walk presented by the Lions of District 1-A. It will be held at Harold L. Richards High School on Central Avenue in Oak Lawn, Illinois.
All proceeds will go to support the District Open Area's account, which serves communities without a local Lions Club. The funds also support the Lions of Illinois Foundation, which provides 13 programs serving the blind, deaf, youth, and people with disabilities. One specific program mentioned is sending hearing or vision-impaired children to summer camp.
Registration and packet pick-up begins on the event day. Parking is available in the South parking lot located on 107th Street.
All registered participants for the 5K run will receive an official race t-shirt. 5K walk participants can receive a race shirt by raising $50 or more in donations.
Awards will be given to the top three male and female finishers in multiple age groups, ranging from 14 & under to 76 & over. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
