The 40th annual Lions Run for Sight takes place on April 3, 2027, at Masterson Station Park in Lexington, Kentucky. The event is an in-person, chip timed 5K on paved roadway surfaces and follows an out-and-back course through the park.
Runners, walkers, families, strollers and dogs on fixed-length leashes are welcome to participate. Awards are presented to the top three men and women overall and in age groups. Race management and timing are provided by RaceRise. Participants receive commemorative race T-shirts and free race photos.
The event offers Vision Teams and team pricing, including a prize for the largest Vision Team. Additional event features include music, food, fellowship and more than 100 door prizes.
Proceeds support local vision-related services and club projects in the bluegrass area. Beneficiaries include start-of-school classroom support for Arlington, Mary Todd and Yates elementary schools; the Kentucky Lions Eye Foundation; assistance to purchase eyeglasses for those unable to afford them; Central Kentucky Radio Eye; Leader Dogs; and other community service projects.
