Victory Junction hosts Run To Victory, Bone Marrow Drive
Randleman, NC-—The 6th Annual Run To Victory will be held on Sept. 24 with the hopes of warmer weather and even more participants. Over 1,000 athletes are expected to run, walk and wheel through Randleman in support of Victory Junction, a camp for chronically and seriously ill children.
Both the half marathon and 5k events begin and end at Victory Junction this year with a starting time of 7am. Run To Victory provides great photo opportunities and great chance to see first-hand what makes Victory Junction such a special place for the children that attend camp each year. The post-race festivities will include a pancake meal at the camp’s Fuel Stop and an award ceremony for participants.
“It’s amazing to think of the continued support we have received for this event each year,” said Kyle Petty, Founder and Vice Chairman of Victory Junction Camp. “Our community, camper families and volunteers are like no other and that’s the reason this event is so successful after six years. It’s an event that not only helps us see more campers, but helps us stay in touch with our community and our donors.”
Participants are encouraged to register online at www.runtovictory.org. The half-marathon is a $50 registration fee and the 5K run/walk is a $30 fee.
The schedule will also feature a special dinner for the Victory Circle Club on Friday evening. The Victory Circle Club dinner will be held at 6:30pm in the Fuel Stop for those participants that have raised $1,450 or more. The dinner gives donors a chance to celebrate their fundraising goal and receive special recognition. The event is open to 100 ticket holders, $15 for adults and $10 for children (12 and under), to enjoy the evening at Victory Junction.
Guests will also have the opportunity to register as a bone marrow donor on Saturday during activities. Victory Junction will be hosting a bone marrow drive through DKMS. This is a great opportunity to extend a child’s life through a donation. For more information visit, www.dkmsamericas.org.
