We are excited to announce that after two years in a virtual format, Heaven Can Wait will return as an in-person event* on Sunday June 5, 2022! You are personally invited to join us for this fun, healthy, outdoor event.

Proceeds from Heaven Can Wait go to Sara’s Project, which helps provide vital support services to people in our community who are battling breast cancer. Throughout its 23-year history, Heaven Can Wait has become a time-honored tradition for the community to come together and celebrate cancer survivors while also remembering the loved ones we’ve lost.

Registration is now open online at GetMeRegistered.com.

This event is open to all skills and abilities. The course is 5K (3.1 miles) starting and finishing in Bend’s beautiful Drake Park. The course takes you south toward the historic Old Mill District and Mill Point Business Park, winds back through McKay Park and residential neighborhoods and returns to Drake Park where festivities and the finish line await. The route is mostly flat with hills on Columbia and Shevlin-Hixon. The course will be well marked. Aid stations will offer water, and volunteers along the course will encourage and help direct participants.

We look forward to seeing you in June!
