APRIL 2, 6:30PM, 2020 - RUNFEST UPDATE
We have made the hard decision to turn RunFest into Virtual RunFest. As you know, this is our largest fundraiser of the year for The WingMan Program. Last year we raised $47,000.00 which goes a long way in keeping our program free of charge to the ASA Athletes we serve. In addition to generating financial support, our hope is that ASA can be a vehicle for everyone to make healthy connections. Now more than ever we feel that our community needs to be connected during this intense period of isolation.
Please visit our RunFest site for additional information on how to register. Questions - email julia@asa.run.
