The community is invited to lace up their running shoes on Saturday, June 5, for Bark & Brew 5K, an annual event to benefit Leader Dogs for the Blind. The race can be either in-person ($40) or virtual ($43). Local racers will enjoy a 5K route starting at Rochester Municipal Park and winding through the Paint Creek Trail.
“For the past 6 years, Chief Financial Credit Union has been instrumental in its support of Leader Dogs for the Blind and our ability to serve people who are blind or visually impaired. Chief’s donations of time, resources and money exemplify what community engagement and social responsibility are all about, and we could not be happier to have them as partners as we work together to help more people who are blind live a life of confidence, safety and independence,” said Dani Landolt, Chief Marketing Officer at Leader Dogs for the Blind.
