Through the broken pieces, the light will shine!

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month. The Blue Ribbon Glow Run is to raise child abuse awareness. DADE FIRST-Family Connection aims to help families make a big difference year-round through small acts that help protect children, strengthen families, promote traits that help protect families, and ultimately, prevent the abuse and neglect of children. 

The Blue Ribbon Glow Run will be a FREE Event and people of all ages and families are encouraged to attend. This is a 1 Mile Run/Walk/Crawl. 

The run will take place on the track around the Dade County High School football field. GATES OPEN AT 8:00 PM and the 1 MILE RACE starts at 9:00 PM. 

For more information, email dade1st@msn.com.

Due to rising costs and the loss of some grant funding, we are asking for donations for t-shirts this year. We will still have free shirts with your online registration.

If you would like to donate to the cost of the shirts for the community, please VENMO @DadeFirst-Family Connection. In the memo line just mention Blue Ribbon Glow Run or (BRGR.) We thank you for your support! 

The first 500 people signed up by MARCH 20TH will receive a free Blue Ribbon Glow Run shirt the night of the event.

For those of you who missed the online registrations, you can still sign-up the night of the event and may be able to get left over shirts. 

Kona Ice will be available for purchase. Proceeds go to DADE FIRST-FAMILY CONNECTION. 

Come dressed to impress and Glow-in-the-Dark!!
