  • A Child's World 5K and Family Fun Run in Norman - 2024

    The interactive community family event, titled 'A Child's World,' is scheduled for September 14, 2024, at Elmore Thomas Park in Lawton, OK, and again on October 5, 2024, at Ruby Grant Park in Norman, OK. Both events will run from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM and aim to connect with families while promoting the importance of childhood development.

    Participants can choose between a 1-mile walk or a 5K route, with developmental obstacles incorporated along the way. This unique approach not only offers physical activity but also emphasizes learning and skill development through engaging challenges. The event focuses on key growth areas, such as gross and fine motor skills, speech and language abilities, cognitive skills, and social-emotional development.

    Those who register by the deadline will receive a T-shirt and a swag bag, filled with resources related to healthy childhood development and mental wellness. The event provides an opportunity for families to access valuable community resources and information designed to foster nurturing development and support emotional well-being at home.

    In addition to the in-person experience, there is a virtual option for participants who prefer to engage online. This digital component ensures that all attendees can access the beneficial resources offered, bridging gaps for those unable to attend in person.

    The overarching purpose of 'A Child's World' is to highlight the potential of children and families through nurturing environments and support systems.
