About the Event

Join Bright Star Community Outreach (BSCO) for our 5K Run/Walk fundraiser on Saturday, May 16, starting at 9:00 AM. This community-centered race will begin in Mandrake Park and continue along the beautiful lakefront, offering participants a scenic and energizing route.

This event supports BSCO’s mission to serve under-resourced communities by expanding access to critical resources such as food distribution, community programming, and supportive services for families across Bronzeville and surrounding neighborhoods. Whether you are running for a personal best, walking with friends, or showing up in support of the community, every step helps us continue this important work.

Participants of all fitness levels are welcome. Come out, move with purpose, and help us build stronger, healthier, and more connected communities.

About Chicago

Chicago is the home of the blues and the truth of jazz, the heart of comedy and the idea of the skyscraper. Here, the age of railroads found its center, and airplanes followed suit. "Stormy, Husky, Brawling / City of Big Shoulders," Chicago is a Heartland boomtown, its ethos defined by urban planner Daniel Burnham's immortal vision: "Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood." It is one of the world's great cities and the third largest city in the United States, behind only New York City and Los Angeles.
