Get your orange and black gear on for the 13th annual Demon Dash Fun Run tomorrow.

Kids, adults, and even dogs can participate in either the four-mile run that travels around the Washington Community School District buildings or take on the one-mile obstacle course at the high school. The proceeds for the event are split between the district’s physical education program and the YMCA of Washington County’s youth programs. YMCA Washington Branch Director Teri Hartzler says the event receives a lot of support from Washington school staff and youth, “We have a lot of students, we’ve had kids from the track programs or cross country programs, band programs, all different organizations that come out and help us, honor society, whatever kids that want to do any silver cord community service hours. So we have a lot of students that come out and help, 4-H kids, and then the police have always been wonderful. They’re always there at the major intersections for us and helping to keep everybody safe on the route.”

Runners and walkers can register as early as 8 a.m. tomorrow at the high school with the races beginning at 9 a.m., and participants receive a t-shirt and breakfast provided by the Washington High School PTO. For a registration form, visit here.
