Bee the Light 5K - The Shelby Foundation for Kindness Delivered

The Bee the Light 5K is a fall run and walk held on a paved trail within Southeastway Park. This park offers wooded areas, bike trails, shelters, a playground, an education center, and a pond. The race honors Shelby Kraft, daughter of Kindness Delivered co-founder Deb Kraft, and supports research into Rett Syndrome, a rare and incurable neurological disorder Shelby lived with. The event marks its fifth year and focuses on fundraising alongside fitness. Each registration fee is directed to the International Rett Syndrome Foundation, with Deb Kraft matching all donations. The day accommodates runners seeking a fast 5K, walkers attending with friends, families enjoying the park, and supporters of Kindness Delivered. Kindness Delivered is an organization that delivers kindness in Jesus' name, and Shelby is the namesake for its efforts.
