Hope on the Prairie

Hope on the Prairie Hope on the Prairie- Annual Prairie Run If we were going to run races why not do it in our own community? That is where the plan started.

Hope on the Prairie is what you get when you have a group of people with big hearts, deep roots, and a passion for running. We would host a small race on the prairie of our hometown of Hawk Point, MO to benefit a charity of our choosing. Our small dream of one race has turned into a annual event and we are excited that each year it continues to grow! Since 2013 we have helped support the American Cancer Society, St. Jude's Children's Hospital, Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, & the family of Charlie Davis the MS (Multiple Sclerosis Society) & Evelyn’s House, SSM Foundation of St. Louis, and the American Cancer Society. This years charities of choice will benefit: Epilepsy Foundation of St. Louis, Barnes Jewish Hospital St. Peters Foundation, & Make-A-Wish Foundation. The course is approximately 4 miles and is a down & back road race. We begin at the Hawk Point Community Park. Enjoy the extremely flat course while taking in the scenic views of the sun setting across the prairie. For our younger participants (12 & under) we will have a 1 mile fun run prior to the 4 mile race. This year we will have a new & improved unofficial timing system. The course will be the same but will be clearly marked. All race participants will receive a hot dog & drink post race. After you finish the race plan to stay and party with us in the park. Returning this year will be 2 Chics & a Photobooth along with a silent auction. We look forward to having you join us and for your continued support! Life…is a race worth running for.

With many thanks I would like to share what our amazing community has done. Our arms stretch far and wide.
Volunteers have spent countless hours helping to brainstorm, plan and act on all of our ideas. All money raised this year has been dispersed, and received. Our recipients have expressed such gratitude and thanks, with tears in the eyes of many. Together we have made an impact on so many.

With this we have been able to raise over $32,000 over the course of 8 races in our tiny little community.
We have donated to
The American Cancer Society
St Jude
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
The family of Charlie Davis
National Multiple Sclerosis Society
Barnes Jewish St. Peters and Progress West Foundation
Evelyn's House
SSM Cancer Care Foundation of St Louis

This year we added even more, with our total at $5600 for 2021.
Epilepsy Foundation
Make a Wish Foundation
No Woman Left Behind
The family of Karen Holmes
Carrie Agers and Family
