GLOW RUN!

On June 8, the ProActive Physical Therapy team hosted their 6th annual Glow Run during Sioux Center Summer Celebration. Nearly 100 people participated in the 5K run or 1 mile walk to help raise funds for the Sioux Center Fire Department. With the help of the Fire Department and Police Department, participants had a fun, safe route, finishing under a large American flag hung by the Aerial 1 firetruck. Finishers were able to enjoy the city’s fireworks, all part of Sioux Center Summer Celebration, as they finished their race. Prizes were given for most creative glow gear. Thank you to all those who joined ProActive for this fun night!
