The Great Chocolate Race returns to Memorial Park, La Cañada, on Sunday, May 6 at 9 a.m. Hosted by the Flintridge Guild of Children’s Hospital (FGCH), all proceeds from the race benefit Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Guild members announced that La Cañada Mayor Mike Davitt will officially start the race.

The 2.5k or 5k walk or run is open to all racers; pets and strollers are welcome, too. The Great Chocolate Race offers something for everyone: T-shirts for pre-registered racers, finish medals for all participants, official chip timing for the 5k, chocolate treats at the pit stops, breakfast and a kids’ zone in the park after the race.

In addition, The Great Chocolate Race is more than just another race; it’s a community event that supports a great cause.

The cost for adults is $30; children (aged 5 to 18) are $15. Visit www.fgch.la to learn more about the race, to register, or to donate.
