'Virtual Run' and 'Ride To Remember' events slated for May 18-25

Join Harbor Hospice staff and sponsors Fruitport Lions Club and Fruitport Chiropractic Center for a run, walk, jog or bike ride from Fruitport, while supporting the Leila and Cyrus Poppen Hospice Residence.

Virtual events will be held the week of May 18 through Memorial Day, May 25. There will be no physical large gathering for the 5k or bike ride events this year.

Runners, walkers, joggers and bikers register online and are encouraged to get outside during the week while practicing social distancing. Registration is a $5 minimum fee and crowdfunding to benefit the Poppen Hospice Residence in Fruitport Township. Crowdfund support for the run or ride at http:/ /bit.ly/2xyPg6f

The top crowdfunder will win a gift card and bike or run swag.

“My family and I know how important hospice care is because we experienced it with my mom,” says Jim Kauppila, member of the Fruitport Lions Club and chair of the Run and Ride to Remember. “Many of our riders come back year after year, and we’re all grateful to be able to support the Poppen Hospice Residence with this fun event.”

Registration is available at:

Registered participants will receive an email with instructions for timed and tracked race app for mobile phone. An out and back course will take them through the rolling hills of Fruitport with medals for top finishers.
