Thank you for visiting my Runaway Pumpkin fundraising page!
On October 14th, I will be running the Runaway Pumpkin 10K/5K during the NH Pumpkin Festival in Laconia, NH.
It's been 1 year since my knee surgery and what better way to celebrate than with a race! I have spent a lot of time on the WOW trail getting back into running shape, so it only seemed natural for me to try and support this community gem! When you donate, please send me a quick note with a number between 1 and 6. I want to dedicate each mile to anyone who sponsors me as a show of thanks! So pick a mile and "come along" for the run! Thanks!
The event is a community effort led by the employees of the Laconia Clinic to raise funds for the WOW Trail and the Greater Lakes RegionChildren's Auction.
I think that these are two great community causes to support and I hope you can make a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal.
WOW Trail's mission is to promote, design, build and maintain a nine mile recreation path through the City of Laconia (and alongside three beautiful lakes: Winnipesaukee, Opechee & Winnisquam) as a part of the regional rail trail network that will one day connect Meredith to Franklin. The first 2.5 miles of the WOW Trail are complete and connect with the first section of the Winnisquam Scenic Trail together offering 4.5 miles of trail to enjoy! WOW Trail is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
The Greater Lakes Region Children's Auction is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that helps community organizations and caregivers in the Central New Hampshire region. The auction, started in 1982 , has helped countless organizations in this community that focus on providing basic needs to children, improve the lives of children or work to eliminate or mitigate the need for basic or extended services for children.
Your donation supports the WOW Trail and Greater Lakes Region Children's Auction and all contributions are tax deductible.
Thank you for your support!
