Orca Plogging Community Run with REI Run Club 

Where: REI Seattle Flagship Store   

Join Orca Running and Seattle REI Run Club on Sunday April 13th at 10am for a FREE Plogging Community Run event.  Plogging is a combination of running and picking up litter.  It benefits the mind, body, and environment.   What could possibly be more fun than giving back and plogging with our amazing running community!?   

We will be joined by Mad Ritual and there will be a raffle giveaway following the run.  Snacks will also be provided.  Please RSVP so we can plan accordingly.  All ages, paces, and friendly furry friends are welcome to our events.  This event is free of charge.  We hope to see you there!
