St. Elizabeth is getting their glow on

St. Elizabeth Catholic School presents their 6th annual Glow 5k Walk/Run on Friday, March 4 at the Alice Municipal course. The event holds a standing record as the largest 5K in Alice. Over 800 people registered in 2020.

We intend to glow stronger than ever.
 
 “Each year, the glow is bigger and brighter, but most importantly, the glow run continues to help us realize an important mission in a way that truly gives back,” said Valerie Vavrusa, the school’s principal. 

The Annual St. Elizabeth School 5K Glow Run is an important fundraiser for the Catholic school that promotes healthy lifestyle habits and helps sustain and cultivate outstanding educational excellence with spiritual formation in our community. The school is grateful to local businesses and the community at large who help make the run a magical experience and continue to rally in support of our fundraising goals and healthy values.
 
 “We encourage all Sponsors to have a presence on the course to promote their business and to show how our community comes together for this amazing event,” said Kristy Green, event co-chair. This year, the glowing 3-mile course will be brought to life with music from ten local DJs, live rock and roll, and mariachis. 

Students and parents will decorate an area along the course to represent their grade level with lights, and signs making it a memorable glowing journey.
 
Our entire community glows, and that’s exactly what we are called to do: to be the light.
