Description

Run or Walk, Eat Pancakes, Feel Good! The Syrup Stampede is an annual fundraiser and community event to benefit Empty Arms Bereavement Support. Run our professionally timed 5k course or take the 2k fun run/walk option, and make sure to stay for the celebratory community gathering and pancake breakfast afterward. Participants are encouraged to create a fundraising page or team and raise awareness and donations for the work of Empty Arms. Through the generosity of individual donors, team fundraisers, and business sponsors, the Stampede raises nearly 50% of the budget needed to serve bereaved families all year long, all throughout the state.
