Join the fun as we work together to cheer for all the runners and walkers. The DASH promotes a healthy community, and supports the Park District Scholarship Fund. Proceeds provide recreation, education, and healthy activities for Des Plaines residents of all ages. Contact us today and be a part of this exciting community event! Volunteers will assist along the race route, distribute food/drinks, help with set-up/tear-down, and more. Groups may request to volunteer together. Children under age 14 may volunteer with an adult. We would love scouting troops, sports teams, clubs and families to volunteer together to make this race the best yet!
