Performer: Children’s TLC 30th Annual Groundhog Run
Venue: Hunt Midwest SubTropolis
Date: 2012-01-29
Address: 8300 NE Underground Drive Kansas City, MO
Description: Join us in the Hunt Midwest SupTropolis on January 29, 2012 as Children’s TLC celebrates the 30th anniversary of our largest and longest running annual fundraiser. The 5K event will begin at 9:00 am and the 10K will follow at 10:00 am. Register at www.groundhogrun.org
Believed to be the only entirely underground 10K in the nation, The Children’s TLC Groundhog Run provides competitors a consistently cozy 68 degree road race in the depths of winter. The call of the cave drives thousands of individuals from coast to coast to battle for one of 3,500 limited entries. Thanks to annual sell outs, this unique event has generated over $3 million for children in Kansas City, allowing them soar beyond personal learning delays, disability or medically fragile condition. YOU RUN, SO THEY CAN FLY.
Whether you’re a competitor or contributor, be sure to join the 30:4:30 Challenge!
Our goal is for each runner to contribute or raise at least $30 for a child served by Children’s TLC. To show our appreciation for your $30 donation, you will receive a FREE Groundhog Run Beanie! But remember, the more you raise, the more you earn! Visit www.groundhogrun.org to find out how to get a FREE iPod Shuffle!
