The Monster Dash 5k

Join us on October 31, 2026 for the Monster Dash 5K! This year our annual event is dressing up for Halloween.  This is a fun, family friendly event.

Charity Partner:  United Way of Union County

Our annual race is a great opportunity to support the work that United Way does in our community.  United Way of Union County funds 29 local partner agencies that directly impact local residents and families. These agencies provide services including food, shelter, personal needs items, peer support for those recovering from mental illness and addiction, mentorship programs for youth success, senior engagements, and so much more. These agencies LIVE the United Way of Union County mission statement by bringing neighbors and resources together to improve lives in Union County and Plain City through economic stability, access to health, childhood/youth success and senior engagement.  Support our wonderful partner agencies by walking or running through Glacier Ridge Metro Park. Your registration fee and donations directly benefits The United Way of Union County and helps us work toward our annual campaign goal.
