Join us for the Monster Dash, a family-friendly fun run on October 24th, 2026! Lace up your shoes, grab your costume, and bring your friends for a morning of fun and a great way to support the Auxiliary to the Boys & Girls Club! Plus! This year - all registrants will get a free scoop of Bruster's Halloween-themed ice cream!
A few race highlights:
The race will start at Grandview Elementary School and continue on the Karst Greenway Trail. (This is the same route as the MCCSC Fun Run!) You can find ample parking at Grandview Elementary and walk behind the gym to find the race start.
There will be a slightly staggered start. The 5K walkers/runners will begin at 11am. The 1-mile walkers/runners will begin five minutes later.
This is a great way to launch the holiday season, get a little bit more use out of those costumes, get some hilarious photos, and best of all, support the Boys and Girls Club.
