The Ballard High School Foundation provides financial support for wellness and activities at Ballard High School. The 5k walk/run will start and finish at the beautiful Golden Gardens Park along the Ballard waterfront. You’ll enjoy stunning views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains on this fast, flat course.

Sponsored by the Ballard High School Foundation, the Running of the Beavers is a 5K Fun Run and Walk. Proceeds directly benefit Ballard Athletics, Cheer, Dance and Band. The finish takes you by the famous Beaver Pond at Golden Gardens. Escape the city as you run/walk along the shores of Puget Sound and help raise funds for the Ballard High School Foundation which supports Ballard High School students and staff.
