5 Kilometers (5K), 3.1 Mile Run

The Butterfly Walk is not your average charity walk, it’s a celebration of courage. It’s a chance to show your support for children with cancer and to help fund life saving research. It’s a time to remember those who have passed and a time to celebrate life with an afternoon full of fun, music and festivities for the whole family. Since 2007, The Butterlfy Walk for CancerFree KIDS has raised over $270,000 for pediatric cancer research. Please join us at the 6th annual event and help us achieve another record setting year.
