Get ready to dash!
Green Park Lutheran School invites you to join us for our 2nd annual Green Park Viking Dash 5k and 1 Mile Fun Run. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just out for some family fun, this event is a great way to celebrate community, fitness, and Viking pride.
Both races will start and finish at Green Park Lutheran School with the 5k following a scenic course winding through the surrounding neighborhood and Grant's Trail. The 1 Mile Fun Run is perfect for kids, families, and walkers who want to join in the fun at their own pace. We will also have activities for the family including face painting, balloon twisting, a coloring station, and both Coffee Toms and Kona Ice available for purchase.
All proceeds benefit Green Park Lutheran School's Viking Village.
