Amber Room Run from the Sun 5K

Run or walk this 5K to support Ann's Place then kick back and enjoy one of Connecticut’s best post-race parties! Unwind and enjoy an outdoor barbecue, ice cold beer, refreshments, DJ and an awards ceremony. Bring your favorite picnic blanket or folding chair and enjoy the beautiful grounds of the Amber Room for the after-race celebration.

This is an important fundraiser for Ann’s Place cancer support services. All proceeds go directly to Ann’s Place and help keep our doors open and our cancer support services FREE of charge to all those in need in our community. www.annsplace.org

It’s easy and fun to fundraise! Create your own fundraising page or create a team page. Have some team building with your colleagues or friends or set your own personal goals.  Waterworks, our presenting sponsor has friendly competitions between teams and have worn costumes to encourage donations. Other teams have created custom shirts and/or raised money in honor of someone, so many great ideas! We can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this year!
