About this race

Join us for the KF5K! One hundred percent of the proceeds from this community event will benefit The Scholarship Fund in Memory of Kevin Flach.  

Kevin was a fun-loving, energetic, 6 year-old boy who loved the Phillies and playing with his siblings and friends at St. Luke School. It is the hope of all of Kevin’s loved ones to keep his name and spirit alive through the Kevin Flach Scholarship Fund.  The intent of the scholarship fund is to not only keep Kevin’s spirit alive, but to continue to provide someone less fortunate a scholarship to St. Luke School.  Both of Kevin’s parents insisted on such a fund.  They have six other children who all graduated from St. Luke School, and they believe it is a great way to honor his extraordinary life.
