THANK YOU TO ALL SPONSORS, RUNNERS, AND MEMBERS THAT PARTICIPATED IN THIS EVENT! IT WAS ANOTHER SUCCESS FOR THE JUNIOR LEAGUE OF GREATER FT. LAUDERDALE AND OUR COMMUNITY!
CHECK BACK LATER FOR INFORMATION ON OUR 10TH ANNUAL RIVERWALK RUN.
The course begins in downtown Fort Lauderdale at Huizenga Plaza and brings participants on a journey along the New River and through the neighborhood of historic Rio Vista. This event includes something for everyone, even the kids. Choose to participate in the 5-mile run, 5k run, 5k fitness walk or enter the kids in the 1-mile Kids' Fun Run. We invite you to stay afterwards and take part in the post-race brunch and awards presentation.
The 8th Annual Riverwalk Run, which took place on March 22, 2008, set a record for this event, attracting 1,300 runners and raising over $73,000 for local charities. Join us in making the 2009 Riverwalk Run the best race yet!
The event benefits the Junior League of Greater Fort Lauderdale's current projects:
- Transitional Independent Living (Adolescents who age out of the foster care system)
- Childhood Fitness and Nutrition
- Ronald McDonald House
- Leeza's Place
The Junior League of Greater Fort Lauderdale has created several of Broward County's top charitable organizations. Over our 70 year history, we have invested millions of dollars, matched by millions of volunteer hours, in improving the lives of our neighbors right here in Broward County. We have trained thousands of women to address community needs and to take on leadership roles at every level.
