Run or walk to support Team Dragonfly! With spring on the horizon, there’s no better time than now to bring your friends, family and coworkers together to make great things happen for Dragonflies: families with children or young adults who have been diagnosed with cancer or blood diseases. The Dragonfly Foundation works to help ease the pain, fear and isolation young cancer patients and their families experience on a daily basis during — and after — treatment.

And this weekend’s Shamrock Shuffle will raise funds to help the cause. Shamrock Shuffle attendees have the option to participate in a Leprechaun Lap for the little ones, a 5k walk, a 5k or 10k run and a community block party on the square at Union Centre. The Shamrock Shuffle allows racers to race for their charity of choice. More than 50 charities have registered, and The Dragonfly Foundation is one of them. You can learn more about the charity at thedragonflyfoundation.org or choose to support another charity close to your heart. $35 to register the day of the race. All participants receive breakfast and T-shirt. 9275 Governors Way, West Chester. 513-874-5450, theshamrockshuffle.com .
