Amber Room Run From the Sun 5K on August 17

Amber Room Run From the Sun 5K is presented by Waterworks and benefits Ann's Place on August 17

Raise or donate $100 and receive a complimentary entry! All proceeds help turn fear into hope for those touched by cancer. Friends, family or colleagues can start a 5K race team or raise funds individually to support Ann’s Place.

Run or walk this 5K to support Ann's Place then kick back and enjoy one of Connecticut’s best post-race parties! Unwind and enjoy an outdoor barbecue, ice cold beer, refreshments, live music and an awards ceremony. Seating for the BBQ is limited, so please bring your favorite picnic blanket or folding chair and enjoy the beautiful grounds of the Amber Room.

This is an important fundraiser for Ann’s Place cancer support services. All proceeds go directly to Ann’s Place and help keep our doors open and our cancer support services FREE of charge to all those in need in our community. www.annsplace.org

It’s easy and fun to fundraise! Create your own fundraising page or create a team page. Have some fun team building with your colleagues or friends or set your own personal goals.  Waterworks, our presenting sponsor has friendly competitions between teams and have worn costumes to encourage donations. Other teams have created shirts and raised money in honor of someone, so many great ideas! We can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this year!
