We invite you to Take 5 with us, and Run, Walk, Block on May 18, 2024, the official day of Armed Forces Day. Runners, walkers, sewists and quilters of ALL ages and abilities are invited to participate! Proceeds from race registrations supports the QOVF mission to cover service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor.
To register go to: https://virtualworldracers.raceentry.com/quilts-of-valor-take-five/race-information
The Take 5 concept allows you to be creative! For instance, you can run 5 miles, racewalk 5K, walk the dog 5 blocks, or walk multiple 5K (or 5 blocks) intervals with 5-minute breaks. If you’re a sewist or quilter, you can sew 5 quilt blocks, sew blocks for 5 hours, or sew blocks with a “5-chocolates reward.” You get the idea! To learn more about Take 5: https://www.qovf.org/take5/.
The race is a virtual 5K Race and participants are encouraged to sign up now and complete the race between May 11-18, 2024. Registration fee is $35.00.
New this year, participants will have a choice between a runners packet, sewing packet, or no packet. More information coming soon regarding the swag contents of each packet!
We encourage QOVF Groups to use Take 5 as a group fundraiser. To fundraise for your QOVF group, first register as a race participant. Once registered, you can download the group fundraising packet from the Member dashboard under the listing name Fundraising: QOVF Take 5 and use the forms in the packet to solicit pledges and donations. A Take 5 flyer is included, that can be shared as needed. Questions can be sent to take5@qovf.org.
Thank you for your support of the Take 5 event!
