Run For Hope 2017

 In Community Support, Hope Village Guild, Hope Village Updates, Run For Hope

Cooler weather is around the corner, and that means it’s time for outdoor fun – football, hayrides, pumpkin patches, and the 17th Annual Run for Hope! 

The run will be held Saturday, November 11th at Bonita Lakes and includes a 10k Trail Run, a 5k Road Race, a 2 Mile Walk and a 1 Mile Fun Run.  The Hope Village Guild would like to invite you to come with a friend, or to gather your running group, school friends, or office co-workers and take our group challenge.  All proceeds benefit the children of Hope Village for Children.
