This family-friendly 5K race and kids dash in Old Town Warrenton is the largest annual fundraiser for Learning Starts Early, an independent nonprofit founded at Saint James’.

The 5K is timed and begins at 8 a.m. in front of the courthouse. Walkers will have the option to complete a shorter course. The kids dash begins at 8:45 a.m.

There are prizes for the winners and hot chocolate for all, and drawings for gift certificates to local businesses.

By joining us and supporting Learning Starts Early, you help ensure that every child in the county has access to all of the opportunities necessary to be ready for kindergarten and to succeed in school and in the workforce. This is an event for the whole family to run or wobble!
