Dear Friend and Sponsor:

Please join us in supporting and celebrating the 13th Annual 4 Our Freedom 5K Run/Walk at  Panorama Farms near Earlysville on Saturday morning, June 3, 2023.  

ParadeRest Virginia, a local non-profit dedicated to our military, veterans, and their families, will once again administer the race with the support of our race committee.

After the success of our 2022 event, our first time at Panorama Farms, we are very excited for the 2023 event.   The 4 Our Freedom 5K is open to all runners and walkers. Panorama Farms is a championship cross country course where the views are spectacular and the route is fun and challenging.  In addition to the in-person event, there is a “virtual” option for runners and walkers to participate from any location around the world during the entire month of June. 

The 4 Our Freedom 5K provides important financial support to local nonprofits that directly serve our military, veterans, and their families that live in the central Virginia region.  Over the past twelve years, more than 7,250 people have participated in this event and, thanks to your generosity, we have raised over $855,000 to support our military, veterans, and their families.  The 2023 beneficiaries include:  Wintergreen Adaptive Sports, Living Free Together, Blue Star Families of Central Virginia, The West Point Society of Monticello’s Seas the Day event, and ParadeRest.

In addition to raising money for these amazing organizations, the event brings the community together.  Last year the race expo included many sponsor booths, food, and even an antique fire truck.  Please support us again and mark your calendar for Saturday, June 3, 2023.

Please consider making a year-end gift.  For more information on the available sponsorship levels visit 4ourfreedom5k.com/become-a-sponsor or contact the Race Director, Bethan Browning, at bbrowning@paraderestva.org. 

Thank you in advance for your time and consideration. We look forward to your participation! 

Sincerely, 

Ernest A. Harper, Chair, ParadeRest Virginia
