An event for those NOT willing to go the extra mile - barely even a quarter mile - but want the swag. This event is for those who ARE willing to dress up and poke fun at themselves while celebrating the reopening of South Front (SoFro) Street and the transformation of our downtown community. No matter how you “race”, registered participants will sample from participating businesses and other fun DTCF 0.5k swag and perks.
Dust off your old Halloween costumes, tracksuits, vintage threds, holiday gear, sequins; whatever you find to deck yourself out for this celebration.
Join us to hang out, shop around, grab a D.O.R.A. bevie, and support our small business community who have made our community a vibrant destination.
