Thank you for your interest in the 9th Annual Florissa Family 5K and Fun Run!
The focus of this event is to raise funds to support Florissa, the children’s division of Kreider Services which helps those with developmental, behavioral, social or emotional needs. Funds raised will directly support the programs at Florissa located in Dixon, IL
If you are unable to participate in this year’s 5K/Fun Run, you can still Support the Cause or you can purchase a gift registration for a runner or walker who is unable to afford the fee.
There are options to run or walk the 5K on an accessible route so everyone can join in the fun. The day starts with a Fun Run for kids ages 9 and under.
Get a team of co-workers, family and friends together and join the Team Challenge. A minimum of 5 runners/walkers per team. The finish times of the top five runners from each team will be combined. The team with the lowest combined score (time) will receive top honors.
If you’re running/walking, ask others to join your Team and collect donations. Team with the highest amount of collected donations for Florissa will be recognized at the event. By participating, you will leave your impression on Florissa Center!
