Lace Up for a Cause: Join the Davis House Dash 5K & Fun Run This May

Mark your calendars and tie up those running shoes—Franklin’s most meaningful race is back! The Davis House Dash 5K & 1-Mile Fun Run returns on Saturday, May 17, 2025, at 8:30 AM at the scenic Park at Harlinsdale Farms. This annual event brings the community together to raise awareness and support for the Davis House Child Advocacy Center (CAC) and its mission to fight child abuse and provide critical services for children and families in crisis.

A Race with Purpose

Whether chasing a personal record or simply enjoying a walk with your kids, the Davis House Dash has something for everyone. Choose between the timed 5K or the more relaxed 1-Mile Fun Run—both winding through the peaceful beauty of Harlinsdale Farms’ grassy trails and open spaces. It’s a perfect way to connect with others and support an incredible cause.

Family-Friendly Festivities

Beyond the race, the event promises a whole morning of fun. Kids will love the Fun Zone, packed with activities to keep them moving and smiling. Meanwhile, parents can explore the Vendor Area, grab a bite at the Food Trucks, and enjoy the energy of a community united for a cause.

Medals, Trophies & Community Pride

Every participant will receive a finisher’s medal to symbolize their commitment to the mission. Competitive runners can earn trophies awarded to the top three male and female finishers in the 5K. Whether walking, jogging, or sprinting, you’re making a difference just by showing up.

Why Your Support Matters

Every step taken during the Davis House Dash helps provide life-changing services to children who have experienced sexual or severe physical abuse. Davis House CAC offers investigative, advocacy, family support, and therapeutic care—ensuring that young survivors receive the healing and justice they deserve.
