🌟 Why should YOU put your Heart and Sole into an event like this?
Funds raised from this fun run and roll will directly support the mission of Camp Korey!  When you put your sole into this fun run and roll you will directly support the ongoing mission of Camp Korey!

Camp Korey is more than a camp.
It’s a place where kids with life-altering medical conditions can just be kids, entirely free of charge. We believe that all children should be able to experience both the joys of childhood and the profound, life-changing impact of camp. Every year, thousands of campers and family members gather in a community of people with shared experiences to sing, dance, laugh, grow, and discover their potential in a medically safe and adaptable environment.

Here, campers with 90+ diagnoses can take a true break from being “patients” and rediscover the joy of being a kid.

Don’t want to run or roll with us but still want to support, we have a variety of fundraising side trails you can join in on!  

You live out of town but still want to participate – register as a virtual runner, track and share your run, and you will get a finishers medal to celebrate YOU!
