Last year’s Knights Challenge may be completed, but the need to feed hungry of Hanover Township remains. For many years, Mary’s Millennium has made the Hanover Township Food Pantry one of their primary charitable causes. Six years ago, we introduced the Knights Challenge 5k in order to step up our ability to support this worthy cause. Through the help of many participants and sponsors, we have been able to donate thousands of dollars to the food pantry. There is still much more to be done to feed the hungry.

Hanover Township Food Pantry helps more than 800 families each month. Keeping their shelves full is always a struggle, but by generous support from the community, they are able to continue their mission of caring for those families. Through your generosity, by sponsoring, participating in the Knights Challenge, or making a monetary donation, Mary’s Millennium Council is able to continue playing our role in serving the community.

It’s More Fun Than Running / Walking Alone !

Thank you for considering running or walking in our Knights Challenge 5k. We hope that you will have fun while helping us raise funds for our very worthwhile cause – feeding the hungry of Hanover Township.

We want you to have the most fun on race day, so we’ve introduced Teams this year so that you can partner with family, friends, or co-workers to cheer each other on to the finish line. Running with a friend (or a group!) really is so much more fun than running alone. When you register, or anytime after that, you can create a team on our registration site.

Once the race is over, a team is there to celebrate, and relax after the accomplishments of the day. Plus, they’ll keep people going and motivate them to finish strong if they’re starting to feel sluggish mid-race.

Need Encouragement ?

Before the race even starts, a team is a built-in training support system. A dedicated team will spend some time running together before the race starts, getting to know each member’s quirks and pace. An individual can push off or ignore scheduled training runs, but a team won’t let them get away with skipping them! Besides support, team members also make for great accountability partners, and will help members to be completely prepared come race day.

Share Team Page to Get Pledges

This year besides awarding an overall male and female winner along with first, second, and third place finishers in each age category (male & female) we will be awarding a prize to the Team that raises the most donations. It’s easy for you to raise pledges via our registration page. Once you’ve registered, anyone can donate to support either an individual or a team.

As a team, you’ll be able to customize your own page – upload an image, set a goal, and track your progress. Share that link on social media, via email, or simply pass it along on a flyer, to gain support for your team. You can create your own t-shirts if you like (we can provide you with logo if you want to incorporate that into your design). Together we can make this year’s Knights Challenge the largest to date. If you need any help forming a team just contact us at info@kofc12801.org.
