ABOUT
THE RACE
"BE THE CHANGE
FOR KYLE"
MEMORIAL RACE 2023
Celebrating Kyle's life on what would have been his 28th birthday. July 2021
MAY 4, 2023
Kyle would have been 30 years old in July of this year. We wanted to do something special to celebrate him and keep his memory alive. Back in 2021, we created a memorial fund at Skookum Kids (a foster care nonprofit) in Kyle’s honor, because he wanted to be a foster dad. Kyle wanted to make a difference and to change lives. So together with those of you who join us, we are helping him do that!
This year, we’ve organized a memorial event to help Kyle’s vision of “BE THE CHANGE” become a reality. This family fun race has some "RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS" mixed in to set an example to "BE THE CHANGE" we all want to see in this world. We’re proud to partner with WFCN to present this fun event!
