2019 Minnesota 5k SCADaddle© For Research
2019 Minnesota 5k SCADaddle© Saturday, September 7, 2019
Our 2nd annual Minnesota 5K SCADaddle© for Research fun run/walk on September 7th was a great success, raising thousands of dollars for much needed research. There were over 400 registered participants including 40 survivors and 40 members of The Ruhberg’s Heart Beats On team who participated in memory of Dick Ruhberg. All participants received a SCADaddle© medal as they crossed the finish line at Battle Creek Regional Park, St. Paul MN. Afterwards, everyone enjoyed refreshments, kids’ activities, each other’s company and had a chance to shop the SCAD store and other vendors. Thank you to all who joined in the festivities and helped to make this such a success!
