Trick-or-Trot

Trick-or-Trot is a spooky, Halloween-themed 5K run and family friendly 1-mile Trick-or-Treat walk in the beautiful Brecksville Reservation of the Cleveland Metroparks! The Saturday before Halloween 2012, “Trick or Trot” will bring together ghosts, goblins, firefighters and pilots of all sizes to benefit Kids in Flight and the Kiwanis Club of Brecksville!

The event will start and finish at Oak Grove Pavilion, near the intersection of Valley Parkway and Brecksville Rd, at 9:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 27. 

Runners can pre-register by mail or online before 10/23/12 at http:// www.hermescleveland.com/ roadracing/events/ trickortrot.asp. Participants will receive an adult long sleeve t-shirt and awards will be given to top 5K finishers and costume wearers in several age groups.

Sponsorship opportunities are still available for local businesses. If you are interested in sponsoring this event, please email an inquiry to BrecksvilleTrickorTrot@gmail.com.

About the organizations:

Kids in Flight uses aviation to empower children with serious illnesses or disabilities and their families through flight experiences and educational programs. Each year, the organization hosts a special day highlighting the wonder of aviation called Wings of Wonder from Burke Lakefront Airport. Children with serious illnesses or disabilities and their families are invited to enjoy a day away from it all while taking part in games, crafts and other activities including a catered lunch and sightseeing flight over Cleveland, creating memories that will last forever. All of this is at absolutely no cost to the families. www.kidsinflight.org
