Stretch out those legs and lace up those sneakers for the second annual Restoration Run held this Saturday in Gladstone. During the 5K run or one-mile walk participants travel along a scenic farm route and the White Chapel Cemetery, just a stone’s throw away from Platte County.

Proceeds from the event go toward Synergy Services, a domestic violence shelter in Parkville, and the Atkins-Johnson Museum. Running participants are charged a $30 fee and walkers are charged a $25 fee. Kids 12 and under are free.
