2nd Annual Help Them Stay 5K : Jonesboro, AR
The Second Annual Help Them Stay 5K takes place on October 10, 2026 in Jonesboro, Arkansas, at Craighead Forest Park Pavilion 1 (4910 S Culberhouse Rd, Jonesboro, AR 72404). The event is hosted by King’s Ranch Ministries, a Center for Childhood Trauma Recovery and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Jonesboro. The organization’s mission is to help children from traumatic beginnings remain in loving, permanent homes.
Race-day features for the 5K include chipped race timing, a race shirt, and water stations. Walkers and runners may participate, and strollers are allowed. A Kids FUN RUN for ages 3–12 is scheduled to take place before the 5K. Race-day packet pickup will be located near the start/finish line.
Additional participation options listed by the organizer include a virtual 5K for remote participants and a Spirit Runner option intended for supporters who do not plan to run. The organizer will place the final order for race shirts on September 22; to be guaranteed a shirt in a desired size, registrants should complete registration before that date. The event supports fundraising for King’s Ranch Ministries. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
