CHECK-IN, PACKET PICK-UP AND DAY OF REGISTRATIONS BEGIN AT 8:00 a.m.
We know that we can do so much more together than we could ever do alone. We need EVERYDAY HEROES like you! When you participate in our 8th annual Everyday Heroes 5K Color Run and 1 Mile Walk, you will you be a voice for the voiceless.
This event is considered a road race and walking and racing take place on paved surfaces at the beautiful Stony Creek Park. Runners and walkers of all ages are invited to join us.
So much has changed in our world in the last couple years. But the trafficking of children hasn't stopped during this unprecedented time in our history. It has actually spiked. Vulnerable children still need our help! We are committed to continuing our efforts to make an impact. RESCUE • RESTORE • EDUCATE • PROTECT. Will you answer a child's call for help?
Are you up for the challenge? Let's get out, get moving, and make a difference!
Please note that if the event is cancelled due to state mandates, it will transform into a virtual event.

“At any given time, there are an estimated 750,000 child predators online - and they all have a key to your house via the internet.” Says Sean Henry, Executive Assistant Director of the Criminal Cyber Response and Services Branch of the FBI.
Everyday Heroes Race 2 Rescue Mission:
** Once again this year, members of the Oakland County Sheriff's Department and the Michigan State Police will be joining us to help raise awareness so that you and your kids know how to stay aware and safe.
