We are thrilled to announce our upcoming Badge of Hope Haunted 5K race, where every step you take will make a difference! This race is hosted by the Auburndale Police Department at Camp Margaritaville. This spooky and exciting race will take place on October 11th, 2025, at Camp Margaritaville, offering a unique blend of fitness and Halloween fun. Your participation will directly support the local area breast cancer patients. Additionally, proceeds will benefit our local Police Explorers program, nurturing the next generation of law enforcement professionals and strengthening community bonds.
The event kicks off with registration confirmation tables opening at 5PM, giving you plenty of time to get ready for the main event and pick up any remaining packets. At 7PM, runners will embark on a haunting 5K course, designed to challenge and excite participants of all age levels. But the fun doesn't end at the finish line! Post-race festivities will include an awards ceremony and a spine-tingling costume contest.
We encourage all participants to come dressed in their favorite and spookiest costumes, as you'll have the chance to showcase your creativity and potentially win prizes. Whether you're a seasoned runner or a first-time participant, this event promises a memorable experience for everyone involved.
