The City of Graham presents the third annual 9/11 Commemorative 5K Run/Walk Event on Saturday, September 16, 2023. Come dressed in your red, white, and blue for the event! The event will also feature a non-competitive 1-mile run/walk, a Runner Services station located in the fire bays, a Touch A Truck area, games, and music with a DJ. This is a community event and is open to all to participate!

The First Responders Team Cup 5K invites first responders (Fire, Police, EMS, and Military) to register as a team. For participants looking to participate in the 5K run/walk, but wanting a shorter distance, we invite you to register for the Non-Competitive 1-Mile Run/Walk.

Donations will be collected for the Children of Fallen Heroes organization, which provides support and immediate needs for children of First Responders and Military fallen heroes through partnerships and donations. Because of the community’s help, they help make a positive difference in their lives and the surviving spouses.

Carpooling is recommended. This event is rain or shine. For more information or to register, please visit https://www.cityofgraham.com/9-11-commemorative-5k-event/.
