Run FOR Ethiopia – Saturday, October 16

October 8, 2010/in empire, family, fitness, food, Leelanau, nonprofit

On the Ground hosts the Run FOR Ethiopia, a special evening of running, pasta and film. The event takes place Saturday, October 16 at 5 PM at Food for Thought just south of Empire, and you can choose between a 5k, 10k, or 1 mile fun run. Following the races, participants and their families can hang out on the farm and enjoy a post-race pasta dinner – featuring the launch of Food For Thought’s new Wild Leek Marinara Sauce!

After dinner, the movie Black Gold (see trailer below) will be shown. Bring your running shoes, blanket, loved ones and let’s help build schools in Ethiopia! Funds raised will go to Run Across Ethiopia, a 250 mile running expedition that hopes to raise $100,000 for schools in Ethiopia.
