RUN to Change Lives COVID-19 Update
First and foremost we want to thank everyone for the outpouring of support for our event and cause of battling PTSD and mental health. Our 2nd annual event scheduled for next weekend on March 21st was gearing up to be quite a production with almost a year of planning behind the scenes. We truly could not do this without each and every one of our sponsors, vendors, volunteers, and participants. We are sincerely grateful.
We want to take this opportunity to let everyone know what our current plans are regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) impacts, and announce that we are following the guidance of the Governor of Colorado to postpone any event over 250 people. Now that the ShamROCK Stampede is officially postponed, we are exploring options to move the event into the future with the exact same venue at the Douglas County Events Center. We are working with all municipalities to ensure the safety of everyone before we can announce a new date. We are also postponing our advanced packet pickups. We have t-shirts and medals in hand and many other vendors paid and ready to provide services. We are working hard and will communicate new plans just as soon as we have firm direction.
Rest assured we stand behind our name… RUN to Change Lives. We will get through this together and continue to provide opportunities to Change Lives Together in a positive way.
Thank you all for your continued patience and understanding as we work through all of this. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with any questions.
