On Sunday, November 17th, Pebble Tossers host our 4th Ripple Run 5K & Nonprofit Expo. This is a highly motivational, action-packed, and FUN Service Event where children and families learn how to become active participants in our community. Through engaging hands-on activities, kids are given exposure to new organizations so they can make a difference in our community. There will be a 5K run and a 1K fun run/walk (stroller & dog-friendly). The Nonprofit Expo at the end of the race will feature local nonprofits and they will be hosting their own mini-service projects related to their missions. Held at Newtown Park in Johns Creek, this exciting family experience is like none other.
Pebble Tossers invites YOU to participate in this fun event! The Nonprofit Expo will highlight a select group of local and national nonprofit organizations. We invite you to be one of our participants as a Nonprofit Exhibitor in our Expo where you can sell your products directly to our visitors.
Nonprofit Exhibitor check-in will begin at 7:15 am and set-up must be completed by 7:45 am. The 1K race and Nonprofit Expo starts at 9:00 am and the 5K is at 9:30 am. The Nonprofit Expo will conclude at 11:00 am.
Your participation as a nonprofit exhibitor will provide an excellent means of interacting with community-minded families in Metro Atlanta. Nonprofit exhibitors will host their own hands-on service project or educational activity related to your mission. The Ripple Run provides a platform for your organization to showcase the amazing work you do in the community and an excellent opportunity to gain new volunteers and potential donors.
To ensure each Exhibitor receives visits from race participants, Pebble Tossers will provide a “passport” to all race participants. Nonprofits need to provide a stamp to each passport. Completed passports will be entered into a raffle to win prizes. Passports will also have a “Vote for your Favorite Nonprofit” category.
