From the Organizer

The Bethlehem Lutheran Fall Fest was started in 2000 by a group of parents, teachers, and school supporters. It is the main fundraising event for Bethlehem Lutheran School. Fall Fest has quickly grown into an annual community event with hundreds of runners (kids and adults) enjoying the fall weather and participating in Fest activities that include bounce houses, games, and local food vendors. Fall Fest is a celebration of Bethlehem Lutheran School’s involvement in the Tri-Cities’ community as well as welcoming in the new school year.

Together, our goal is to raise $40,000 for new improvements to our school! This year, we are fundraising install a book vending machine and give our school library a nice refresh. Please join us for our one-mile and 5k races along the river at Howard Amon Park in Richland, WA!
