Downtown Dash is for the superhero in you

On your mark! In its fifth year, the annual Downtown Dash is set for Saturday, April 7. The race, a 5K and a 10K, is hosted by the Junior League of Little Rock.

“This year’s theme is ‘Community Service Superheroes’ and highlights the connection between how proceeds for the race are used to support the League’s community service programs, such as Boosters and Big Rigs, Little Readers Rock, and KOTA Camp,” said Elizabeth Griffin of Junior League of Little Rock.

Superhero costumes are encouraged. The race begins at 8:30 a.m. at the Junior League Building on Scott Street.
