About the Event

Race Purpose:

Paws to the Rescue 5K serves as both a fundraiser and an opportunity to amplify the mission of local dog rescues like Lucky Pups, while engaging with our supportive community.

All proceeds go directly to Lucky Pups Rescue to provide care, medical treatment, and safe homes for dogs in need.
