VIRTUAL Cherishing Children Glow Run
April 13 - May 11
VIRTUAL Cherishing Children Glow Run
At the Children’s Advocacy Center of Benton County, the welfare of our community is always our top priority. I want to encourage you to remember that our CAC relies heavily on the community’s support to empower children throughout Benton County to speak truth about child abuse. Our work continues during crisis and times when school is not in session, in fact, there’s an increase in child abuse during these times.
Due to the rapidly developing Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation, it has become clear that we will be unable to proceed with the normal 20th Annual Cherishing Children Glow Run in the manner that our runners and community have come to expect – where the safety and security of our runners, volunteers, staff, partners and spectators is our primary concern. The Glow Run will not occur on April 17, 2020. Instead, it has been modified to the 20th Annual Virtual Cherishing Children Glow Run.
All registered runners will have between April 13th-May 11th to complete a 5k, 1-mile walk or run and the kids superhero 400-yard dash (on any safe course of your choice – i.e. greenway, track, or treadmill are all acceptable) and show proof of completion by emailing a picture to [email protected] After your run is complete, runners will be able to pick up their Glow Run goody bags, shirts and finisher medals at the Children’s Advocacy Center of Benton County (2113 Little Flock Dr. Little Flock, AR 72756) for all confirmed registered runners between April 13th-May 11th, during regular business hours (8:00 am – 5:00 pm). NOTE: Extended hours until 6:00 pm only on Tuesday, May 3rd and Thursday, May 5th.
Registration will remain open until March 31st at 12:00 midnight.
