Spring into Summer 5K
About this race
Join us for a fun-filled, family-friendly 5K supporting the OCHS Emerald Players theatre group! Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or just looking for a great way to spend time with loved ones, this event is all about community, creativity, and giving back.
Bring the whole family and enjoy a lively atmosphere with music, encouragement along the route, and plenty of smiles from start to finish. Costumes are welcome—after all, we’re celebrating a theatre group! Strollers, kids, and participants of all ages and abilities are encouraged to take part.
All proceeds from the race will go directly toward upgrading the theatre’s lighting system, helping the OCHS Emerald Players continue to bring outstanding performances to life on stage. Your support will make a lasting impact by enhancing productions and creating an even more magical experience for performers and audiences alike.
Come run, walk, and shine with us—because every step helps keep the spotlight glowing!
