LARC sponsors 5K for Kaylee

[December 05, 2013]  The Lincoln Area Running Club will host a 5K run/walk on Saturday, Dec. 14, at Kickapoo Creek Park.

The event begins at 2 p.m. and will include a 1.5-mile route and 5K run/walk. Virtual Runner will also be available.

All proceeds from the event will go to benefit the family of Kaylee Helton. Kaylee is a 14-year-old from Middletown and a student at Lincoln Community High School. She recently suffered a massive pulmonary embolism and was hospitalized in St. Louis with serious complications.

Everyone is encouraged to come out and lend their support to Kaylee and her family.
