Proceeds from this year's 2-mile WalkAThon & 5K will be used to support the Metro Dallas Homeless Alliance, operators of The Bridge: Dallas' Way Back Home. People experiencing homelessness access opportunities at The Bridge, the area's only centralized multi-service campus for care and housing.
The $35 registration fee [only $30 in advance] includes a Help the Homeless WalkAThon & 5K t-shirt, featuring colorful artwork designed by a child from Rainbow Days, a non-profit that hosts summer camps for homeless children. Each registrant will also receive a sponsor goody bag. The $15 Pet Registration [as long as the dog is leashed and current on vaccinations] includes a BONE-a fide 'Hounds Hoofin' for the Homeless' pet bandanna.
Registration begins at 8 AM this Saturday, November 13, at City Hall Plaza in downtown Dallas. There is free parking for participants under Dallas City Hall. Read more about the event here, and a FAQ page here, see the schedule here, and register online here.
"They will extend us a group discount of $4 off of the pre race day $30 registration fee.

The code for the discount they have created for those entering under the group rate is DD."
