THERE WILL BE RACE DAY REGISTRATION
The race is sponsored by Keller Williams Realty, and all proceeds will benefit the Butler chapter of Isaiah 117 House, an organization that provides a safe, welcoming home for foster children on removal day.
When children are removed from their homes out of concern for their safety, they are usually brought to a child welfare services office to await placement. This wait can be a few hours to several days. These children often have nothing with them and are scared, lonely, hungry, and in dirty clothing.
Isaiah 117 provides a comforting home where these children instead can be brought to wait – a place that is safe with friendly and loving volunteers who provide clean clothes, smiles, toys, and snuggly blankets. This space allows children to receive the comfort and care they need while child welfare staff can do the necessary paperwork and identify a good placement.
The mission of Isaiah 117 House is threefold:
- reduce trauma for children awaiting placement
- lighten the load for child welfare services
- ease the transition for foster families

Race will be located at pavilion # 4 by the North Shore Beach. Down and back on the bike trail.
