Welcome to the 7th Annual Don't Worry Be Hoppy 5K & Kids Fun Run, hosted by soleMOTION Race Management Services LLC.  Hopefully, Covid 19 will allow us to get outside and exercise our bodies & minds.  Understanding that we do not know what the status of the virus will be, we are making a number of accommodations:

​

• As of today, we are limiting registrations to 250 for the 5K (Kids Run, no limit).  If the outlook changes, we will raise that number

• All registrations must be made online

• There WILL NOT be walk-up registration the day of the event

• If conditions due to Covid-19 are not safe, we will cancel the event. Registration fees will be refunded (processing fees charged by the SignMeUp registration company will not be refunded)

We are excited to partner with KAT6A Foundation by providing  a portion of the profits to their awesome mission! 

 Their mission is to support people and their families living with KAT6A and KAT6B related disorders. It is imperative to raise funds to further research and identify possible treatments that could lead to a better quality of life. We aim to inform, raise awareness, and identify more individuals with KAT6A and KAT6B gene mutations. This enables researchers and clinicians the opportunity to discover more about these rare disorders and give our community greater consideration.
