Master Kim's 5KTKD Scholarship Fundraiser

Lace up for a meaningful morning at Master Kim's 5KTKD Scholarship Fundraiser, returning for its 5th annual event on Sunday, August 9, 2026, in scenic Webster, NY. This uplifting event offers both a 3.1-mile (5K) run/walk and a spirited 1-mile run/walk for children, welcoming participants of all ages and abilities. Held at Webster Park, this fundraiser plays a vital role in supporting the Master Kim's Taekwondo Scholarship, which has awarded over $76,000 in scholarships to deserving high school students pursuing higher education. With typical August conditions in Webster bringing highs around 81F and lows around 62F and a 17% chance of precipitation, runners can expect warm, potentially humid conditions perfect for a summer race.

The 5K course navigates the picturesque surroundings of Webster Park, offering a pleasant experience for both competitive runners and casual walkers. The dedicated children's 1-mile run provides a fun challenge for young athletes aged 4-12, traversing a grass course on a field. Younger "Tiny Tiger" participants (ages 4-6) are encouraged to bring an adult guide to share in the excitement. All finishers will receive a commemorative medal, with special trophies awaiting the top performers in various divisions.

Master Kim's 5KTKD Scholarship Fundraiser is more than just a race; it's a community celebration dedicated to empowering youth through education. The event's history of raising over $20,000 for The Taekwondo Fund highlights its significant impact. Participants can also opt for a deluxe package that includes an event shirt, and a virtual option is available for those unable to attend in person. Join fellow runners and walkers at Webster Park (255 Holt Road) for a rewarding day that combines fitness, community spirit, and a commitment to future leaders.
