HephziBOO! Dash

The event kicks off with a live DJ and a high-energy group warm-up, followed by a spirited 1.5-mile run/walk where costumes are encouraged.
Guests also enjoy raffles, face-painting, pumpkin decorating, and other family-friendly activities that keep attendees engaged throughout the event.

Hosted by Hephzibah’s Oak Park Auxiliary Board on the Sunday before Halloween, Rain or Shine!

The HephziBOO! Dash offers donor companies a unique opportunity to align their brand with a beloved community tradition that is lighthearted, memorable, and highly visible to local families. Sponsors help create the festive experience by providing Halloween treats and giveaways, putting their products directly into the hands of attendees in a setting designed for positive brand interaction and community goodwill.

Support for this event benefits Hephzibah’s after-school and summer programs, which provide affordable, enriching childcare on a sliding scale for families of all income levels. Donors and sponsors make it possible for children and families to access safe, engaging care while demonstrating a meaningful commitment to community enrichment.
