Waubonsee Community College’s 5K Trail Fundraiser
Waubonsee Community College is hosting its second annual Walk, Run, and Win 5K trail fundraiser. All proceeds from the race will directly benefit deserving area students through the Waubonsee Community College Foundation Scholarship Program.
This family-friendly event is open to the public and will take place on Saturday, June 4 at 9 a.m. on the Sugar Grove Campus. All registered runners and walkers will receive a free t-shirt, a food truck treat, and giveaways from our sponsors. Community members are also invited on campus during the race to show their support and partake in the food truck delights. Race participants will enjoy a scenic trail on a cross-country style course and an opportunity to help Waubonsee students continue their education and realize their dreams.
“New for our 2022 race, we have added early bird pricing that saves participants money when they register early,” said Dr. Melinda Tejada, Vice President of Student Development and Executive Director of the Foundation. Participants can save with early bird pricing until April 15, 2022, when they register online.
During the 2020-2021 academic year, the Waubonsee Community College Foundation has provided 328 scholarship awards totaling over $313,900 to 277 recipients. To register for the run/walk fundraiser or to learn more about the event, visit waubonsee.edu/5k.
