Columbia Gorge Toyota and Honda will MATCH the first $5,000!!! The local recipient will be announced this spring. In 2025 we raised $17,611 for the Columbia Gorge Food Bank!
5k AND 1 mile run/walk options. Kids 12 and under are FREE!
Have a business, group, or organization? Try our Medium or Large flock options to easily sign up the whole crew.
Not a runner, no problem! Bring the whole family (Fido included) for face painting, music, costume contests, photos, fire pits, and the ability to give back in a very simple way.
The big Lady will also be on location, dressed especially for the occasion.
See you there!
