6th Annual Elim Eagles’ Wings 5K Run/Walk/Roll

On your marks…get set…GO! to the 6th Annual Elim Eagles’ Wings 5K Run, Walk, & Roll! Join us on the grounds of Elim Christian Services in Palos Heights, Illinois, to lace up your running or walking shoes and stride for the finish line on Saturday, May 7, 2016 at 9:00 am. Participants may choose between the timed 5K course and the untimed short loop course (1 mile) on Elim’s campus. Registered runners will receive official times for the 5K.

All registered participants will receive a free T-shirt and will also enjoy music, refreshments, and raffle drawings. Kids will even have the opportunity to partake in a free pre-race obstacle course. In addition, this year’s 5K event has a “Star Wars” theme, and costumes are welcome!
