Because Operation Military Kids Club (OMKC) is a Non-Profit organization, they need your help so that they can better serve the military kids at our school as well as during the Month of the Military Child in April. The Non-Runners Run is how they have done it in the past and it ALWAYS makes for a fun time for kids and adults alike!  It's short and sweet as it's only half a mile long and sweet because you get a donut and beverage.  We would love it if you would register! The more the merrier, and the military kids will be the winners! If you register by Oct. 3rd at 10pm, you will also get a race t-shirt!
