Why We Run

The Legacy 5K directly supports the Legacy Dream Center of Safer Communities Ministry. This ministry is dedicated to delivering programs and resources that offer renewed hope for inmates, ex-offenders, addicts, their families, and their communities. Our mission is to build safer communities by transforming lives of people and their families, one person at a time. We believe that anyone, regardless of their past sins can be transformed and reborn through Christ. 

 

The Celebration

Make sure to stay around after the race awards for the live music. There will be a live gospel band playing in the gazebo shortly after the awards ceremony!

 

Come join us for a fun day of running, outreach, and worship!
