Family-friendly Evening Run and Activities Support GWU Students Through Bulldog Cares Fund

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥擳he 成人视频 Department of Physician Assistant (PA) Studies is sponsoring 鈥淕low the Distance 5K,鈥 a fun evening for students and families to raise money for fellow GWU students in need. The event will be on Nov. 15 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the parking lot of the College of Health Sciences, 315 W. College Ave., Boiling Springs.

Assistant Professor Dr. Allison Shamblin, director of Didactic Education, noted that PA students enjoy helping others and decided to host this event to raise funds for Bulldog Cares, a joint initiative led by 成人视频鈥檚 Student Development, Student Success, and Financial Planning offices. The fund provides emergency financial support for students facing unexpected hardships that could prevent them from continuing their education. This aid helps with urgent needs and is not a replacement for financial aid.

Shamblin emphasized, 鈥淭he glow element makes it more exciting than a standard race鈥攖hink neon lights, glow sticks, black lights, and cool outfits. It turns the run into more of an event or party than a competition. It’s also a great way to get family and friends together for an enjoyable and memorable evening.鈥 

Jill Jesser, the president of the PA Cohort of 2027, is excited to help host the event. 鈥淧lanning this 5K has been so much fun,鈥 Jesser shared. 鈥淓ach of us has gotten to contribute our own piece of the puzzle, whether that be with decorations, T-shirt design, seeking sponsorships, or getting the word out to the community. Knowing that all our hard work is going to a great cause to support our fellow students here at 成人视频 makes it all the more rewarding!鈥

Shamblin added that glow items will be available to participants at the beginning of the race. These include glow sticks, bracelets, sunglasses, washable tattoos and face paint, hair accessories, and balloons. 鈥淲e will also have plenty of games for kids including an inflatable slide, glow limbo, glow bowling and others,鈥 Shamblin highlighted. 鈥淲e will have awards for the best 鈥榞low鈥 costume, so we are encouraging everyone to wear their best glow attire. Bring the family and come join us!鈥

The after-dark 5K course through campus will light up the night with glow stations, music, and family-friendly fun. Following the 5K, activities for children and families will also be offered on the lawn.
