YOUR FAMILY’S FALL SATURDAY PLANS ARE OFFICIALLY HANDLED.
Operation Run To Heal is the kind of day families can experience together from beginning to end.
Run the 5K. Walk it at your own pace. Carry a ruck. Let the kids participate, cheer from the course, or celebrate everyone crossing the finish line. There is no qualifying time and no pressure to be the fastest person there. The win is showing up together for a cause that matters.
The fourth annual Operation Run To Heal 5K begins at 1:30 PM on Saturday, October 17, at Memorial Park in Reading. The event raises funds and awareness for the Green Beret Foundation and its work supporting Green Berets, their families, and Gold Star and surviving families nationwide.
Once the 5K is over, the family fun keeps going at Reading Common from 2:00 to 8:00 PM. The post-race celebration will feature food trucks, local b**r, vendors, live music, lawn games, and activities for all ages.
The celebration is open to the whole family. Alcohol is available only to guests age 21 or older with valid ID, and registered participants age 21 or older receive one complimentary b**r ticket.
