Run for Hope 5K

The 3rd Annual Run for Hope is scheduled for Sunday, March 29, 2026, at Rotary Park in Foristell, MO. Organized by the St. Dominic High School Class of 2026, this event serves as a kickoff for Child Abuse Awareness Month. All proceeds from the race are donated to The Child Advocacy Center (CAC) in Wentzville, an organization dedicated to providing excellence in child abuse response and a path toward healing for victims and their families.

The race is hosted at Rotary Park on West Meyer Road. Packet pickup is held on Saturday, March 28th, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at St. Dominic High School, or on race morning starting at 9:00 AM at the park.
