Join us for the 5K to Feed the 5K—an exciting and meaningful Easter fun-run hosted by the Gavilan Peak Ward of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!
This family-friendly event combines fitness, community spirit, and the joy of giving. Just as Christ used the miracle of the five loaves and two fish to feed the masses, we’re coming together to help feed those in need in our community. Runners will participate in a 5K fun run, with the goal of helping collect items for the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry's St. Rose Campus. The entry fee is just 10 items per runner, so bring your donations and run with a purpose.
For those who may not be ready for the 5K or prefer something family-friendly, we’re excited to offer a special Half-Mile Kids Run! This .5-mile run will take place entirely around the church property, creating a safe and supportive environment for our youngest runners. Parents are welcome to cheer along the route or run alongside their child if needed. The entry for this run is just 10 items per family, making it easy for everyone to join in the fun while supporting a great cause. It’s the perfect way for kids to build confidence and be part of this meaningful day of giving and community.
The fun continues at 9:00 AM with a children's Easter egg hunt!
Please note: This event is designed to be a fun run, not a competitive race. We'll be running on sidewalks, so please follow all traffic and pedestrian rules for safety. Whether you’re walking, jogging, or running, we’re all here to have fun, support a great cause, and enjoy a wonderful Easter weekend together!
