The Fourth annual Superstar Family Fun Day and Mason Mile Run/Walk will take place on Saturday, October 15th,
from 9 – 12 AM at Key Elementary School, 2300 Key Boulevard, Arlington,
VA. Rain or shine! The “Mason Mile” will start at 9:30 am. This is a
FREE community event, with optional donations to benefit Key School and
the Mason Leach Superstar Fund at Children’s National Medical Center.
Superstar
Family Fun Day will consist of outdoor activities for the whole family,
music, snacks, and the main event – the “Mason Mile”, a one-mile road
run/walk down Key Boulevard.
The
Superstar Family Fun Day and “Mason Mile” are held in the memory of
Mason Leach, a five year-old Key School student who passed away from
brain cancer in 2007. This event is sponsored by the Key School PTA and
the Mason Leach Superstar Fund to honor and support the community who
helped Mason during his illness. This event celebrates Mason’s life and
encourages the children of Key School to be active both physically and
in their community.
To
help others battling cancer and other illnesses, the event will also
host a blood drive for eligible donors. The Children’s National Medical
Center Blood Mobile will be on site. To set up an appointment for that
morning go to www.cnmcblooddonor.com.
