We’re thrilled to invite you to the 12th Annual Pink Pumpkin Run — a heart-filled day of community, celebration, and support! Choose between a 5K run or a 2-mile walk, and help us make a difference for those affected by breast cancer right here in Washington & Dodge Counties. 💕
💗 Every step you take supports local recipients and their journey through breast cancer — let's show them we are stronger together!
🐾 We kindly ask that you leave your furry friends at home, as our insurance policies do not allow pets on the course. Thank you for understanding!
