Come join us for a fun-filled run at the Bower-Kin Community Center! Lace up your running shoes and get ready to enjoy the beautiful weather while participating in our second annual Sun Run sponsored by Sunterra Market. Whether you're a seasoned runner or just looking for a leisurely stroll, this event is perfect for all ages and fitness levels. Soak up the sunshine, meet new friends, and make some unforgettable memories at the Sun Run!  Kids can join interactive play nearby on the fields and playgrounds with all kinds of sports equipment and games. Enjoy a pancake breakfast from 9am - 1pm in support of Central Sport; representing volunteers and athletes from over 45 City of Red Deer sports organizations.

Participants can register to run or walk in either the 3km or 5km event, and every participant will receive a treat at the finish line, courtesy of Sunterra Market!  There are two Dairy Queen Bubble Run events for children: 100m for ages 1-3, and 500m for ages 4-5. Bubble Run participants also receive finishers' prizes.  

Everyone is welcome to join us afterwards for the Bo's Bar and Stage Afterparty featuring  the Mustard Seed BBQ (supporting the School Lunch Program), bounce houses, live music, and beer garden until 8pm.  All sales will be cash only, but an ATM will be onsite.
