If you’re like most people, you probably didn’t wake up thinking you need to participate in a 5K tonight but maybe that’s exactly what you need to be doing with your
Friday night
! Operation Underground Railroad is an organization made of former Navy Seals, Special Ops, and homeland security officers, who go into the dark trenches of the world to save kids from sex trafficking. The Vernal Rescue Run was founded by Jill Boyd in 2016 and she and her team of volunteers host the 5K event annually to raise at least $2,500 dollars, the amount generally needed for the operation to rescue one child. This year their goal has upped to $3000. All are invited to register online at
VernalOUR5k.com
or come register tonight
starting at 7:00 pm
at UBTech in Vernal to walk, run, or crawl in support of this cause. In fact, you are also welcome to just stop by to make a donation or buy raffle tickets! A local officer will be speaking about the cause
at 8:30pm
and the 5K gun will go off
at 9pm
sharp! Every penny raised is sent to Operation Underground Railroad to support upcoming missions to rescue sex trafficking victims.
