We're off to a "Running Start" towards Christie Clinic Illinois Race Weekend: April 25-27, 2024!
As a Charity Running Partner of the race, we're proud to participate in this local tradition. Every year, the race provides the opportunity to raise awareness and gather support for homeless pets in need. And you can help!
Thinking about registering for one of the races?
Join our fundraising team! Our Event Coordinator will give you a discount code for registration if you want to help homeless animals as you train for your races! The registration cost will rise as we get closer to race weekend, but our non-profit discount will still work!
Ready to Race?
If you have already registered and want to select a Charity Running Partner, there's still time to fundraise! Reach out to our Event Coordinator to be added to our team.
Once you've registered to run and fundraise for CCHS, we will reach out with more information on how you can engage your network, spread awareness about the CCHS mission, and make a difference in the lives of animals throughout Champaign County.
Not a Runner? Volunteer!
If "sit and stay" is more your speed, we would love your volunteer support on the racecourse! Race Weekend depends on volunteers to keep the course safe for runners. To say thank you to volunteers, the race organization donates $25 to the Charity Running Partner of your choice for every course position you commit to. There's a short online orientation session for volunteers before Race Weekend and just a few hours of your time on the course. The online volunteer portal makes it easy to pick shifts and locations to match your schedule and needs.
Just remember to select Champaign County Humane Society as your Charity Running Partner!
Can you give a few hours of your time between April 25-27, 2024?
Do you have someone to cheer on during Race Weekend 2024? The race team publishes event schedules and maps of the courses online. Consider finding shift times and course locations where you can encourage your friends and family to do their best, all while earning a donation for CCHS!
Thank you for your support, Champaign County! CCHS is the only open-admission animal shelter and adoption program in our area, and we couldn't do it without you. Please help us continue to shelter and care for companion animals in our community, by joining us in any way you can this Race Season!!
Now, it's off to the races!
