The Hearts & Hands Walk/5K Run for Autism and Family Fun Day is our SIGNATURE fundraiser! We depend on our annual Walk/5K to raise funds to continue to provide the FREE and vital services & supports to children, adults and their families, as they face the everyday challenges of living with Autism Spectrum Disorders. When you support CAR, you can rest assured that all of the money raised stays local & will help improve the lives of people living with Autism, their families and their communities!

“JOIN NOW” and choose which event, (walk or 5K), you are registering for. Creating your fundraising page DOES NOT register you or your team for the walk or 5K. **

THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD RAIN OR SHINE!

Walk Information: The walk is approximately 2 miles and can be done at your own pace and is not timed. Strollers are welcomed.

There is no registration fee to walk or a fundraising minimum to participate however; we strongly encourage participants/teams to create fundraising pages to get your family/friends/co-workers/community to support you/your team in your fundraising efforts for this very important event!

All games, activities, prizes, & refreshments are FREE as a thank you to all for their efforts in helping to take action and raise money for this event!

Walkers who raise a minimum of $60.00 in donations, and who have registered by Thursday, August 29, 2019, will receive an Official Walk T-shirt. Example: a team of 10 will need to raise $600 to receive a shirt for each team member.

5K Information: The 5K is a 3.1 mile road race and is a timed race. We ask that anyone who registers for the 5K runs this race and does not register for the race to have a longer walk. If participants choose the 5K and choose to walk instead of run, to compete for a time, unfortunately, they will not receive a time. Strollers are welcomed for all runners.

There is an early bird registration fee of $25 for all runners who participate in the 5K. Day of registration will be $30. First 100 Runners will receive a Free T-Shirt with their 5K Registration.

We strongly encourage participants to create fundraising pages to get your family/friends/co-workers/community to support you/your team in your fundraising efforts for this very important event!

Awards will be given to overall female, overall male & top 3 in each age group!
