“The Princess Run and Little Dude Dash Festival is designed to celebrate and delight in our youth. On this day, these kids are our focus and with this being a kids’ only event (parents can run w/kids), our creativity and imagination allows us to be as playful as they are with this festival,” said runhers special projects director Sheila Kidder. “We want the event to entertain, engage and celebrate our amazing kids while offering support and awareness for all the great things that the Salvation Army OKC does for our youth.”
I just heard about this today and immediately was all over it. My daughter is 2 1/2, but I would love, love, love for her to do this. I’m waiting to hear back from the organizers to find out if I can walk along with her. She’s a little shy, so she might want some moral support.
This is going to be great, people.

Carrie,
Thank you for sharing our fun event! Once the kiddos are registered the parents are more than welcome to join in on the fun with them! So, yes, you can provide moral support for your shy 2 1/2 year old. Even better to have you experiencing this with her!
