March for Meals St. Patrick's 5k Run & Walk Race Description

PLACE:

Kissimmee Lake Front Park

201 Lakeview Drive

Kissimmee, FL 34741

 

DESCRIPTION:

 

March for Meals St. Patrick’s 5K Run/Walk is a fun run event to create awareness of senior hunger and to raise money for the Meals on Wheels program in Osceola County through the Osceola Council on Aging. It is a fun run with a clock, so you can catch your time at the finish line!

 

We will award the top 10 male and 10 female overall finishers plus the top male and female finisher 65+. This year’s event will be a few days before St. Patrick’s Day. Since we are so close to St. Patrick’s Day, we are asking all participants to have fun with the color “green” by wearing your “lucky” green to celebrate ending Senior Hunger! We are asking you to put together a team and participate in our “Team Challenge” category and win the “MOST SPIRITED TEAM” and/or “LARGEST TEAM” in 2025!

 

Put your team together today and show your spirit and help us fight senior hunger by supporting the Meals on Wheels in Osceola County program. Thank you for signing up and we look forward to seeing you there!
