For Kids 5k

This family-friendly 5k Run Walk will be held May 17th and benefit the kids of Northwestern Settlement, a charity that nurtures, educates and inspires families in Chicago's West Town community. The race begins outside the A. Perry studio, winds throughout Winnetka's beautiful neighborhoods and the Green Bay Trail, ending with a finisher's party in the Winnetka Community House lawn and garden area.

Participants will receive a performance shirt and goodie bag. All kid runners receive finisher medals, and the top 3 women, men and the fastest stroller will receive a medal. 

 At the post race party, enjoy some live music, food and fun with our community partners. Also, Candus Suppelsa will be leading the crowd with a mini Zumba class!
