From the Organizer
Join us for the second annual Monster Dash! We are so excited to host this event again this year. After learning from last year's experience, we have made improvements to create a more centralized course around Weber High School with fewer hills!
The Monster Dash is a Halloween costume run designed for participants of all ages. Our goal is to bring the community together for some exercise, Halloween fun, and a great cause.
This year, 100% of the funds raised will be donated to Make-A-Wish Utah to help grant life-changing wishes for children facing critical illnesses. We are incredibly excited to partner with such an amazing organization and see the difference our community can make in a child's life.
We hope you will join us in supporting this incredible cause while enjoying a fun-filled Halloween run!
