Harvey Family 5K Run/Walk

Before we consume our own weight’s worth of food, let’s start the day off right with exercise and service! The race will be held at Woodward Park in Manteca. A map can be found below. Admission for the run/walk is one non-perishable food item per person, which will be donated to a local food bank. Events include a kids “50-yard dash” for those 5 and under, a “1 mile sprint” for kids ages 6-12, and a 5K Run/Walk open to everyone 12 and over. 

The schedule for the 5k Run/Walk will be as follows:
8:30am- 50 Yard Dash (5 & under)
9:00am- 1 mile Sprint (6-12 years)
9:30am- 5K Run/Walk (12 and over)
10:30am- Breakfast/Awards Ceremony

Breakfast will consist of fruit, cereal bars, muffins, and water.
All children taking part in the 50-yard dash and the 1 mile sprint will receive participation awards. In addition, we'll be awarding prizes for the following categories:

Family Talent Show

Think “Dan in Real Life.” With the characters in our family, it’s bound to be full of laughs, cheers, and surprises. J To make it work, we’re asking each family to be prepared to share one presentation. It can involve your whole family, just the kids, or even just one family member. It can be musical, a dance performance, a magic show, some super-human trick, or anything else you can think of. We can’t wait to see your talents!
