Beat the Heat 2025

Another successful Beat the Heat Run Fundraiser is in the books!

We had a blast cheering the kids on during our water balloon fun run. We enjoying ice cream, smoothies, and flavored ice treats from Brusters, Cozi Cup Coffee, and Kona Ice. We had the privilege of seeing our sponsors get to soak down runners and truly provide some relief from the heat during the 5K and 10K. The day started with an Orange Theory sponsored warmup and ended with the awarding of our 10K medals and prizes.

Thank you to our premier sponsor: Pete Alewine Pool & Spa; Our Soaking Station Sponsors: Queensborough National Bank & Trust and Security Federal Bank; and our Hydration Station Sponsors: Kamo and Wynn Capital. Thank you to Landscapes Unlimited for providing the water for the day. Thank you to Fleet Feet for sponsoring and Two Girls and a Clock for their seamless timing services. Consider joining us next year to continue to support our mission to provide hope one shower at a time. Remind yourself what it feels like and means to you to be refreshed in the heat of the summer!
