About this race
The second annual Maxton Gudowski 5K Memorial run/walk honors Maxton, a younger avid runner known for his loving, caring nature and willingness to help others. Proceeds support Cooper Community Care, which works to reduce poverty's impact and ensure equitable education through year-round assistance and annual Christmas giving. A race-day raffle benefits Safe Haven Shelter & Resource Center. The event is at Portman Park in the Lakeside neighborhood, an area Maxton frequented.
