Second annual Buddy Run 5K and Fun Run

The Second Annual Buddy Run 5K and Fun Run will be held Nov. 4 at Lake Park on N. Dale Mabry Highway between Northdale and Lutz, just south of Van Dyke. The event is being run by Congregation Beth Am and Buddy Baseball as a fundraising event that incorporates healthy living and community service.

The event will consist of a 5K run, a 1 mile run/walk and a Buddy Dash for runners with special needs.

Buddy Baseball is a non-competitive recreational league for boys and girls ages 8-18 with special needs. Each player is paired with a "Buddy" to assist the player as needed. Players enjoy the thrill of participating and get to experience team play and camaraderie.
