Glide Revitalization will hold the Heron’s Flight 5K Fun Run, Walk and Community Wellness Fair on Saturday May 2nd, at the Glide Community Center.
The event exists to honor Carmen Bernal, a beloved member of the Douglas County community who dedicated her life to nursing and caring for others. Net proceeds from Heron’s Flight go directly toward the Carmen Bernal Nursing Scholarship, which supports aspiring nurses here in Douglas County.
Alongside the 5K, the Glide Community Center will host a full Community Wellness Fair with local vendors, heath resources, and activities for all ages. Participants will include Aviva Health, the Umpqua Community College Nursing program, Glide Fire Department, Little Loggers Playschool, Umpqua Valley Farm 2 School, and other groups as well.
Registration for the 5k fun and walk is $15 for adults and $10 for kids. A t-shirt bundle which includes registration is $30. Walk-up registration will be available on the day of the event. Medicine Flower is the Gold Sponsor for the event this year.
