Lace up your shoes for the inaugural Boys and Girls Club of Kumeyaay Nation Wellness 5K Walk and Run, set to take place on Sunday, March 29, 2026, in beautiful San Diego, CA. This exciting 5K event is more than just a race; it's a powerful opportunity to support a vital cause, raising funds for a new safe space and culturally enriching programs for Native youth in San Diego. The Boys & Girls Club of Kumeyaay Nation is the first Native Services Boys & Girls Club established in California, making this event a truly historic and impactful gathering.

The scenic NTC Park (2455 Cushing Rd, San Diego, CA 92106) provides a picturesque backdrop for participants of all ages and abilities. Runners and walkers can anticipate typical race day conditions with comfortable highs around 68F and lows near 56F, along with a minimal 4% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for a fantastic outdoor experience. While this marks the first annual running of the event, the family-friendly atmosphere promises to be one of community and support.

Every step you take in this 5K contributes directly to empowering San Diego's Native youth, providing them with opportunities in sports, arts, academic tutoring, and connecting with their heritage through traditional activities. Crossing the finish line will not only bring a sense of accomplishment but also an exclusive event T-shirt and a congratulatory medal to commemorate your participation in this significant community effort. Join us to make a lasting difference and help build a brighter future for the youth of the Kumeyaay Nation.
