This one’s for the kids — K-8 students (and their families) are invited to race around Lake Mirror on Sat., Oct. 29 at the 2022 Red Ribbon Run and Challenge.

Sponsored by Publix Super Markets, the race promotes InnerAct Alliance’s Mission to reduce the abuse and underage use of harmful substances. Participants can compete in timed heats or go at their own pace in the family + kids fun runs. Kids run (and rock an event t-shirt) for free (Adults: $5). 🏃

Register, run + raise awareness.*
