Why
To help the Hank Kabel Sarcoma Foundation raise money and awareness for canine cancer and to honor Hank and all other dogs who have lost their battle to this devastating disease. By participating in Hank’s race you, are not only raising money for dogs with cancer, but also for people with cancer, since clinical trials in dogs help decide medicines that are effective in human cancers as well.
Cost
Registration is $30/person, which will go directly to help fund canine cancer research through the foundation. Children 14 and under will be admitted free, but must be accompanied by a registered adult; children 18 and under must have a guardian sign the form for them. Registration will be accepted the day of the race for $35/person. You may also purchase race-day items, including T-shirts, bandanas and medals; items must be ordered by June 13 and must be picked up at the race.
