_ The 2022 Run For The Paws:

Run For The Paws 5k and 1 mile run benefits the animals at the Wellington Humane Society. The Wellington Humane Society is 501(c) non-profit that serves Sumner County Kansas. We are a no kill shelter that opened to the public in December 2019. Our mission is to take in unwanted animals and find them loving, permanent homes. We receive no city or county funding, and rely on donations to care for the animals at our shelter. All proceeds from this run goes towards providing food and medical care for those currently living at the shelter while they await their forever home. 

The 5k will begin at 7:30am and the 1 mile will begin at 8:30 am on July 9th, 2022. This event is part of the Wellington Wheat Festival (July 6th-9th). Both races will be held at the Wellington Humane Society, 203 W Hillside. Course will be a mix of road, gravel, and sidewalk.
