Our annual 5K/1 Mile Run for a Mission is a wonderful way to enjoy and race as a family. Lilburn City Park has a scenic easy paved trail. The park provides other park features if you wish to bring a picnic or take your children to the playground afterwards. There is also a restaurant in the park.
Awards and Support
We have awards for the 5K race: Overall Male / Overall Female trophies; Overall Master Male/ Overall Master Female trophies; First and Second Place Male and Female Medals in all age categories. Your participation in our Run for a Mission provides financial help to the Latin American Sisters in Columbia, SA. These sisters manage safe houses and orphanages for children ages birth - 18 years old. They provide food, clothing, beds, education, and teach them how to cook, sew, etc. Their goal is to teach them a life skill and prevent these children from falling victim to sex trafficking, drugs, and violence. 100% of the money is given to these sisters to help with bedding, clothes, building repairs, and more.
