Spirit of Hope 5K Health Walk & Run

12/04/2015

It is with heavy hearts that we announce that the Spirit of Hope 5K will not return for 2016. We, the Spirit of Hope 5K committee, have had an incredible time with this event! Over the last five years (2010, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015), we have watched friends, new and old, cross that finish line and we have celebrated with you! We have been inspired by your hard work and delighted to be a part of your journey! You have helped us raise over $27,000 for local charities such as the American Cancer Society, Mission Carthage, and New Destinations! We absolutely cannot say thank you enough to our sponsors, volunteers, participants, product and goody prize donors, and committee! It has been quite an amazing run, pun intended, and we look forward to seeing all of you at future events! Thank you for a wonderful five years! We will miss you. PS – Please remember, you do not have to be a sponsor or participant in any event to support a cause that is near to your heart. ACS, Mission Carthage, and New Destinations are all made possible because of people like you. Please consider contacting these organizations and setting up a one-time, monthly, or yearly donation. Together we can make a difference. (Please feel free to touch base with us for contact information, if needed.)
