Run for Your Life 5k & Kid's Run/Walk

Run for Your Life Costume Contest

Before choosing your costumes, please read:
Please use good taste and judgement in choosing costumes that are respectful to the diversity of our community. Costumes that play on ethnic or racist tropes, like caricatures of another ethnic group or promote harmful stereotypes including those on the basis of race, creed (religion), color, national origin, age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity are not appropriate. If you're thinking of using someone else's culture as a costume, steer clear. ​Please also be mindful that this event is a suicide prevention and mental health awareness event.  

Need some inspiration? Check out last year's winners! 

Looking for affordable and/or second-hand costume options? Check out Sacks Thrift Store, which benefits the Help Center as well!
