Downers Grove South Key Club plans benefit Mustang Trot 5K

DOWNERS GROVE – The Downers Grove South High School Key Club will present its annual Mustang Trot 5K Run/Walk on April 10 to benefit Honor Flight Chicago.

Race registration for adults costs $25, $20 for students, a news release stated. Race participants can register online or by mailing a form to South High Key Club by April 8. Credit cards only can be used for online registration. Walk-in registration will be available on race day from 8 to 8:45 a.m. for $30, regardless of participant’s age. If a community member does not want to participate in the run/walk, they can still make a donation to Honor Flight Chicago. The race begins at 9 a.m., with packet pickup and registration starting at 8 a.m.

Community members are invited to participate and raise money for Honor Flight Chicago. The organization honors veterans by providing a Day of Honor trip to Washington to visit the World War II, Korean War and Vietnam War memorials. Thanks to donations, the trip is provided at no cost to the veteran.

The race will begin and end on Norfolk Street near the visitor parking lot at South High School. Pre- and post-race festivities will take place in the large gym, which can be accessed by the West Events Entrance.
