Event Information
About the Event
Welcome to our 8th Annual Knights of Columbus 5K Run/Walk! We hope to build on the success from our last year's race, where we had over 150 participants and raised over $6,000 for the community! Our annual races have raised over $32,000 to date that has been donated back to the community for several charitable causes!
Our volunteer non-profit group has been fundraising and helping out in the Wrentham area and surrounding community for over 30 years! All proceeds will benefit the many charitable causes supported by our Knights of Columbus Council in the community. This includes local food pantries, homeless shelters and other charitable causes.
