Join us for the 4th Annual
Run for Resilience 10K - 5k - 1M Run/Walk
Our Club focuses on raising awareness of teen mental health wellness and connecting the community with resources. Bring family and friends to cheer you on and meet local vendors and mental health providers.
We invite all skill levels to participate in this family friendly event starting at Queen Creek’s Pecan Lake Entertainment.
Proceeds benefit the Rotary Club of Queen Creek’s events and efforts to improve youth mental resilience. Additionally, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Hope Mental Health Foundation, a local nonprofit that provides funding for mental health counseling when financial means are limited.
Participants ages 18 and younger receive a $10 discount when registering for either the 10K or 5K distance!
