Kendall Tenney, local news anchor and Vice-President of the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada, will be hosting his 7th annual 5K Run For A Wish on Saturday, February 2 at 7:30 AM at the Freemont Street Experience. Participation fee is $25.

Southern Nevada residents are invited to participate in what is supposed to be the biggest event so far, joining wish children and their families, supporters, avid runners and walkers, teams from various community businesses and organizations, board members and other volunteers.

The event is sponsored by KWNR 95.5 and KVBC Channel 3, and will include raffles, refreshments and an entertaining post-event award ceremony.

This event is organized by Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Nevada and is the largest fundraising event of the year. Proceeds of this event will be used to fulfill wishes for children who are battling life-threatening illnesses. So far over $204,000 has been raised!

Team registration ends tonight at 6pm! If you want to join an already-formed team, check out this meetup.com page, or register here.
