Lighthouse Fun Run & Family Day
About this race
Family Fun Day!
Find your fast feet – the 12th Annual Lighthouse 5K Benefit Fun Run and Family Fun Day is kicking off! This year’s scenic site? The gently rolling hills and tidy trails of Ancient Peaks Margarita Vineyards. Start at the stunning Ancient Peaks Barn and wind your way around the vines of this beautiful venue. Ideal for runners trying to set a quick trail time, or for wandering walkers taking in the views.
Kids can run like rabbits as they race the half-mile or the 100-yard dash (6 and under), and jump for joy in the bounce house.
Stay to enjoy Kiwanis’ always perfect pancake breakfast, listen to music from DJ Trent, visit our vendor booths, and paint your heart out with the HiYa Rock Project, too!
This event benefits Lighthouse Atascadero – a valuable program dedicated to serving the needs of our youth by building a safe and healthy community through Awareness, Prevention, Intervention and Education.
