Race Description

The ASL-for-All 5K is back for its second annual fundraiser, scheduled to take place on September 28, 2024, in Olathe, Kansas. This event aims to foster a 'Shared Signing Community' where Deaf and non-Deaf individuals can interact and communicate through American Sign Language (ASL). Participants can look forward to a beautiful 5K route along the Indian Creek Trail, with festivities including Fun-Runs for children and an ASL Festival at the conclusion of the event.

The race day will begin at 7:30 AM with registration, followed by the 5K race at 8:30 AM. Kids can enjoy two Fun-Runs measuring 50 and 100 yards, respectively. Water and refreshments will be available for registered participants. Proceeds from the event will be shared between the Kansas School for the Deaf Endowment Association and the Museum of Deaf History, Arts & Culture, showcasing the strong commitment to solidarity in the Deaf community.
