BVP Community Health & Wellness 5K/Kids Fun Run is a running race on October 4, 2026 in Pawtucket, RI, with entry fees from $5 to $25.
From the Organizer
Blackstone Valley Prep’s Community Health & Wellness 5K brings scholars, families, staff, and community members together for a fun-filled morning celebrating health and wellness. The 5K is open to the general public, and strollers and leashed dogs are welcome—so bring the whole family!
Before the 5K, scholars in Grade 4 and younger are invited to warm up and participate in a short Kids’ Fun Run led by a BVP Physical Education instructor.
Day-of registration will be available; however, T-shirts are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so preregistration is strongly encouraged.
All proceeds benefit Blackstone Valley Prep Athletics.
