Shamrock & Run for Hope 5K

Join us for the first annual Shamrock & Run for Hope 5K on Saturday, March 12, 2022, at Snowden Grove Park in Southaven, MS. This race is for runners, walkers, and those who roll or stroll!

This event benefits The Hope Center Community Center of North Mississippi.  The Hope Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit (Tax ID 35-2519986) whose mission is to improve the communities in DeSoto County, Mississippi, by providing safe activities and events for the area’s youth. Combining a much-needed after-school program with a variety of activities for citizens of all ages, the Hope Center will infuse the culture of DeSoto County with optimism and a more positive community.

We are offering both in-person and virtual race options.

The in-person race begins at 8 a.m.  Early Bird registration is now through February 18 for $25 per runner.  After February 18, the registration fee increases to $30 per runner.  Children under 10 years old race free.    Each racer will receive a registration packet prior to race day.  To be guaranteed a t-shirt, we ask that you register prior to February 18.

The virtual race option is for those who are not able to participate in person. Separate results will be provided for virtual runners. Please note, due to the nature of virtual results being reliant on dependable cell service and honesty, there will be no awards for virtual participants. Results are for recognition only.
