Pilar McLemore Butterfly Run
The Pilar McLemore Butterfly Run takes place on Saturday, November 7, 2026. It is the 4th annual edition of the event.
The event includes two activities:
- Pilar McLemore Butterfly 5K Run: A 5K run/walk.

Participants who register by October 10, 2026, are guaranteed a t-shirt. All participants receive breakfast after the race, a swag bag, and a race bib. Event registration also includes admission to the Arboretum.
