Hero Hustle Fun Run: Battle of the Badges
Run. Walk. Give Back.
Join us for Battle of The Badges, hosted by KB Gives Back, as local Fire, Law Enforcement, and EMS agencies come together with the community for a friendly competition with one shared goal - investing in the future of our community.
Whether you're an experienced runner, a casual walker, or simply looking for a fun family-friendly event, Hero Hustle is for everyone. Choose between our 5K Run or 1-mile Fun Run/Walk and help make a lasting impact.
Proceeds from Hero Hustle will directly support the KB Gives Back Scholarship Fund, helping local students pursue higher education, trade schools, technical programs, or other career paths after graduation. We believe investing in our students is an investment in the future of our communities, and every registration helps create opportunities for the next generation.
