Run for Palestine ~ Saturday, October 8th

This Saturday (October 8th) from 5-8:30 PM the Run for Palestine takes place at the Food For Thought Farm. It’s a special event featuring a 5k run followed by a post-race pasta dinner and movie under the stars.

The course is mostly road, with the 10K entering parts of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Following the races, participants and their families can hang out on the Food For Thought farm and enjoy dinner and a movie.

Bring your running shoes, blanket and loved ones. Funds raised will go to Run Across Palestine, a running expedition to raise money to assist Palestinian olive oil farmers by providing trees and scholarships to olive oil farming families.

The price for adults is $30 in advance or $35 day-of with kids 12 and under $15 in advance ($20 at the door). You can also sign up for dinner and movie only (kids 12 and under eat free) for $15. Here’s the link to register online.
