Children’s Home Society Heroes 5K At Okeeheelee

The Children’s Home Society of Florida will return to Okeeheelee Park for its 18th annual Heroes 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, April 24 at 7:30 a.m. at the Micanopy Pavilion.

With added safety measures in place this year, more than 250 participants are expected. Registration costs $40. Virtual registration is also available for those who cannot attend but wish to support CHS from afar.

In-person registrants will receive a race t-shirt and medal, and awards will be given to top runners in each age category. Register at www.chsheroes5k.org. Registration for the timed race closes on Friday, April 23 at 4:30 p.m.

Through the Heroes 5K Run/Walk, everyone can be a hero for children by helping CHS keep more families safe, strong and together.

The Heroes 5K also honors everyday heroes — police officers and fire rescue workers who work tirelessly alongside CHS to protect the community.

CHS is driving child well-being in Palm Beach through innovative solutions in child welfare, mental health counseling, early childhood education, mentoring and more. Learn more at www.chsfl.org.
