Hopefest 5k is a charity race benefitting special needs children through the STM Options Program. We are excited to be the first ever 5k race in the brand new, beautiful Moncus Park.

New this year we will have a 1 mile loop for walkers, children, and strollers. All proceeds go to support special needs kids through the STM Options Program.   Not a runner, then come out and stroll for a good cause and enjoy all the festivities.

 

Pre-registration cost is $25 and the walk up rate is $35.

Pre-registration ends on March 31st at 12:00pm.  

 

Stick around after the race for the all-day Hopefest music festival right there on the water front at Moncus Park. Boiled crawfish, jambalaya, BBQ, fun jumps, face-painting, kids games, and much more.
