Run for the House
Welcome to the Registration page for the 2011 Run for the House!
2011 is the 11th year of this event! But this year, we are doing things a little differently:
- We have a new name: Run for the House
- We have a new date: October 1, 2011 (in the fall!)
- We have a new location: Ronald McDonald House
- We have a new route: Down Kingman Blvd. Click to see the 5K map & 10K map
- We have dropped the price! $10/$20
- We are adding a fundraising element this year!
What does that mean?
Now you can raise money for the House! After you register, you will be prompted to make your own personal web page on this site. Tell your friends and family that you're running or walking in our event and ask them to make a pledge for the Ronald McDonald House on your behalf.
The cost:
$10 Registration: Allows you to participate without receiving a T-Shirt
$20 Registration: Allows you to participate and receive an awesome T-Shirt!
Collect $100 in pledges in addition to your registration and receive our exclusive RMH Supporter Recovery Pack! Our gift to you for reaching out to your community to gather support for the Ronald McDonald House!
