Join the North of the River Recreation Foundation for a community celebration that brings neighbors together for a great cause — supporting the Youth Scholarship Fund!
Love Your Park Fun Run & 5K
Sunday, February 1st, 2026
Polo Community Park
Every step you take helps local children and families access recreation programs, sports, and camps that build confidence, connection, and lifelong memories. Whether you’re running the 5K, walking the Fun Run, or cheering from the sidelines, this event is all about loving our parks, loving our hearts, and giving back to the parks that make our neighborhoods thrive. Participants will receive a finisher medal (while supplies last), and all net proceeds go directly toward scholarships for youth recreation opportunities at the North of the River Recreation & Park District!
Pop-Up Rec will also be on-site at Polo that morning from 8-11am, and it's a perfect opportunity for the whole family to come out and enjoy the park!
