Description
Thank you for your interest in the Husky Dash 5K! You can walk or run! Bring a group of friends to walk too :)

The Husky Dash 5K is a fundraiser for the University of Southern Maine Enactus. Enactus is an international non-profit organization that brings together the top leaders of today and tomorrow to create a better, more sustainable world though the positive power of business.

The money raised through the Husky Dash 5K goes to fund future community service learning projects that benefit our Maine community working with groups in need (Look below for our community partners). A portion of the proceeds goes towards Leukemia Research in honor of our past member (MGH Fund).

Registration is $25.00 (with site reg fee not included). You will receive a free Husky Dash t-shirt in your race packet and registrations received on or before March 21 will be guaranteed their t-shirt size!

After March 30th the registration fee will stay at $25.00, but we will not be able to guarantee your t-shirt size after March 30th due to ordering polices. 

You can still register the day of the race with the fee of $25.00, but you will not be guaranteed a shirt or shirt size, but all other benefits apply. 

You can register online up till the night before the race, and you can register in person morning of at 8:30 (cash/check only accepted then). But we encourage to register online.
