A new Blue White Weekend tradition continues! Runners and walkers of all ages and abilities will take part in the Third Annual Beaver Stadium 5K Run/Family Fun Walk at Penn State University on Sunday, April 22, 2012 to benefit Special Olympics Pennsylvania. The Run will begin in front of the Bryce Jordan Center (BJC) on Curtin Road, move through Penn State’s scenic campus, and conclude with runners racing through the Beaver Stadium Tunnel and onto the Nittany Lions’ home turf to the finish line.

The Beaver Stadium Run is a Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) that included individuals from law enforcement; Special Olympics Pennsylvania (SOPA) athletes; various Penn State University athletes and organizations; and the community. For those who are not up to running the 5K, a one-mile Family Fun Run/Walk will coincide.

Thank you to Penn State University, the State College community and the runners and walkers who helped raise funds for the 2011 Beaver Stadium 5K Run/Family Fun Walk! More than 1,600 runners and walkers took part in the Second Annual event raising more than $86,000.
