Description

What's YOUR passion? Here's your invitation to follow Shelley's and MANY others in this community!

 

Join the community and me the morning of April 19th at Millennium Park for two exciting events: a 5K Fun Run and a 2-Mile Walk! Come "chase the Energizer BUNNY" while raising funds for WGVU Public Media.

 

A Message from Shelley: "MY passion IS movement and having this opportunity to set goals and "chase" them when it comes to fitness. Blessed with "energizing bunny energy" for both my work at WGVU and for my fitness, I am thrilled to invite YOU to get involved through a sponsorship or attendance! Just say YES! (like Shelley!)"
