Come and join us for the 2010 HopeKids Wasatch Adventure taking place at the beautiful This is the Place Heritage Park in Salt Lake City!
All proceeds to benefit HopeKids Utah.
HopeKids is a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
Get a fundraising team of up to five together and choose one of four activities to participate in:
- The Adventure Walk: Suitable for kids and families, walk the Park grounds visiting each of our Adventure Stations. You never know who you might meet!
- 5K Walk.
- 5K Run.
- Remote Participant: If you are unable to be at This is the Place on September 11th, feel free to get one or more teams together in your community and walk or run for Hope!
When you walk or run to support HopeKids, you are raising the spirits of hundreds of kids and their families in their greatest time of need. You are giving them the gift of HOPE!
It’s simple. Use this page to create your team fundraising page. From there, share the team page with family and friends, and spread the word about your WALK OR RUN FOR HOPE. You can walk the 5K or run the 5K.
You can collect "offline" gifts of cash and checks and list those on your fundraising page. Bring those donations with you to the Run/Walk in an envelope clearly marked with Team Name and total enclosed. You can also collect everything "offline" and not use a fundraising page. (All checks made payable to "HopeKids")
We hope you will show your support of HopeKids with your time and energy and help raise money when you come and WALK OR RUN FOR HOPE!
CAN'T MAKE IT BUT WANT TO HELP?
You have two options--become a remote participant and walk or run 5K in your chosen location. Or use this link below to send to your family and friends to help raise money through the "Wasatch Adventure General Fund":

IMPORTANT NOTES:
Like last year, there is no registration fee, but we are asking that all teams raise a minimum of $100 for participation in the Wasatch Adventure. Team sizes are limited to 5 participants. If you have more participants, consider starting a second team!
Encourage your family and friends to support you! This could be donations to your team, or they could join your team and create their own fundraising page. Or they could create their own team and compete against you!
Other activities to look forward to:
- Lunch!
- Official race participants are granted access to This is the Place Heritage Park. Come in the morning and walk or run, stay into the afternoon to enjoy the park!
