This run has been an annual benefit to raise Melanoma and other skin cancer awareness since 2015. The run begins and ends at the Mabel Community Center with raffles, beverages, games for kids and entertainment for adults on site. The Lions will be hosting a pancake breakfast prior to the race from 7am-11am. Fun for the whole family!
