Dragonfly Dash - Cincinnati Event
October 08, 2016 - Liberty Township
The main feature of the event is the
"Dash" where participants will walk, skip, roll, hop one half-block (333
feet) around the Liberty Center's green-space, with the Dash running in
10-minute groups starting at 10:30 AM. The event will include entertainment
provided by Cincinnati Circus on the lawn of Liberty Center, music, snacks and
drinks, an auction/raffle, an after party, and awards ceremony on the rooftop
deck. Jenn Fritsch from Q102 will be the event emcee!
Admission to the event is $10 per adult, $5 per
child (4-18), and free for anyone under the age of 3. A $5 Military Discount
will be available to those with a current military ID. All proceeds will help
Dragonfly meet the needs of young cancer patients and their families.
The Dragonfly Foundation believes that the Dash
is not about how long the run is, or about what you do while you are doing it,
it's about how much you enJOY the moment. The Dash, like life, is short.
The length of the dash is 333 feet. The
repetition of the number three signifies "mind, body, and spirit," and to be
mindful of new opportunities that cross one's path. As a foundation,
Dragonfly's goal is to provide emotional support for young cancer and bone
marrow transplant patients and their families - which is what the choice to
hold a 333 ft. long "dash" signifies. Prizes will NOT be awarded for
the fastest or slowest, instead, prizes will be awarded (in both child and
adult categories) for enthusiasm, participation, and JOY. A raffle prize will
also be awarded among those who visit at least half of the participating
Liberty Center stores/restaurants and get their "passports" (which will
be provided) signed.
