A Safe Place, Lake County’s sole provider of services exclusively focused on domestic violence victims and their children, will host the EmpoweRun 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, May 5, 2018 at 9am at Independence Grove in Libertyville.
The 6th Annual event brings together athletes of all abilities together to support the fight against domestic violence. Participants are encouraged to register in advance to receive reduced rates, including a special rate for kids 5 and under. Registration is available up until the day of the event.
Running enthusiasts, families, men, women, children, businesses, and partners are all invited to participate or attend the event to support the organization’s lifesaving services to victims and their children and raise awareness of violence in our communities.
As always, participants are encouraged to form a team, bring together friends and family, and challenge themselves to complete the course and raise additional funds by using the website to solicit pledges for their team.
