It was a chilly morning on Saturday, November 11 as the House to Home Solutions Team along with local runners, walkers, scooters, and skippers assembled for the second annual LaunchCARES Charity Race in King Farm in Rockville, MD. It was a morning to come together as a community to honor Veteran’s Day, and raise money for charity. Participants had the option of signing up for the 10K, 5K, 1-mile Fun Run/Walk, and the Kids Trike-a-Thon.
Over 500 participants were anticipated to compete for cash prizes in the timed distance events, handed out for first through third place winners. There was face painting, glitter tattoos, gift cards and baskets, and even an appearance from the Chick-Fil-A cow. Music and the cheering crowd carried the runners through as they raced for the finish line.
