About the event

Thank you so much for coming out to support the 2nd Annual MorganStrong 5k run to help give back!


Morgan Riley DiVita was a beautiful 12 year old girl who was in 6th grade at Fletcher middle school. She loved hanging out with friends and family. Morgan had a real love for animals. Another true passion was art. Morgan was diagnosed with DIPG on Feb., 9th 2021. This is an inoperable brain tumor that is found in the brain stem.The average fight for this cancer is 8 to 9 months and has no survivors.  Morgan fought hard for 8 months and passed away with her family on September 20, 2021.

The 5k timed Race and the 1 mile Fun Run and Walk will take place in the beautiful settings of Hanna Park.  Please Note - Hanna park charges $5 per car to enter the park which is needed to access the events 

Morgan LOVED dinosaurs - so for those interested we are having a dinosaur costume contest and will be awarding the best dressed. 


The race includes a race shirt and a finisher medal.


Race proceeds will go to The Child Cancer Fund, and Community Hospice PEDS Care group to help other families navigate through difficult times.
