Description
Get ready to lace up your running shoes and join us for Bree’s Miles of Memories! This annual event is a celebration of the incredible person that Breanna Leigh Chadwick was and continues to be. Although we miss her terribly, her memory lives on through this wonderful foundation and event.
For all you Dr. Seuss lovers out there, this is the event for you! Seussville will be bustling with all sorts of characters, including Cat in the Hat and friends who will be mingling around, so make sure you bring your camera. And speaking of photography, don’t forget to take advantage of our free photography services so that you can capture those special moments.
But that’s not all – we’ve got a whole host of fun activities lined up for the day. The Memorial Presentation for Breanna is sure to be an emotional moment as we remember her and the impact that she had on our lives. But it’s not all about sadness; this is also a Family Fun Day and Birthday Celebration for Breanna. So stick around after the 5K and join us for great food, music, fun, and fellowship.
We’ve got prizes for our littlest participants too! All runners aged 10 and under will receive a Dr. Seuss book as a memento of the day. And for those student organizations and groups looking to win some extra cash, we’ve got $250 each up for grabs for the organization and group with the most runners – just remember, you can’t win both!
If you’re feeling extra creative, why not dress up as your favorite Dr. Seuss character and get a special prize? You’ll fit right in with all the other Seuss enthusiasts at the event. And for those who want to take it up a notch, join in the Dr. Seuss Costume Contest during the family fun day.
All racers get a Long Sleeve Race Shirt so that you can remember this incredible event forever. The best part? All the proceeds from this event will go towards the Breanna Leigh Chadwick Memorial Foundation, which supports Breanna’s cherished principles of love, charity, kindness, and duty and the race is a peach tree qualifier.
So come on down to Bree’s Miles of Memories and celebrate the incredible life of Breanna Leigh Chadwick. Let’s keep her light shining bright for years to come.
