Be a Champion for Local Kids! Join us for the inaugural Boys & Girls Club 5K, presented by Fleet Feet Treasure Valley, on Saturday, September 6th!

Lace up your shoes and make a difference in the lives of young people right here in Nampa. Every stride you take in this community-focused 5K supports the vital programs of the Boys & Girls Club of Canyon County, empowering them to reach their full potential.

Imagine crossing the finish line at Centennial Elementary, knowing you've contributed to a stronger future for our kids. This isn't just a race; it's an opportunity to champion their dreams! Enjoy a scenic 3.1-mile course along the Nampa Greenbelt, a commemorative t-shirt and finisher item, and the inspiring energy of fellow supporters. This event is perfect for all runners and walkers alike.

Please consider donating a gently used pair of shoes at Fleet Feet Meridian or Fleet Feet Nampa and receive $5 off your race registration. Let's step up for our kids together! It would be best to drop off donations at one of the shops but feel free to bring your donated shoes to the event. Our goal is to get as many kids a fresh pair of shoes for the upcoming school year as possible!

Youth members of the Boys & Girls Club of Canyon County participate for FREE! Are you or your child a member? Please reach out to info@boiserunning.com to receive your free entry and discounted t shirt.

Register today and become a champion for the Boys & Girls Club! This race is brought to you by Boise Running.
