Laker Family Weekend FUN(D) Run
THANK YOU FOR A GREAT EVENT!
What is the Fun(d) Run?
Lakers can navigate our course however they would like! For those with a more competitive spirit, awards will be given to our overall Top 10.
Our overall Top 10 finishers will receive a medal and prize pack.
Our course is a 2-mile loop that includes popular Allendale campus landmarks and making it accessible and enjoyable for all Lakers.
All proceeds will go directly to the Recreation & Wellness Program Fund, directly benefitting GVSU students.
