All enjoyed a fun morning complete with DJ, refreshments, a Roundhouse touch tank, and a physical therapy tent. Of special interest was the raffle held after the Fun Run awards were presented. Both are known for their excellent prizes.

Proceeds from the successful Fun Run benefit the Roundhouse Aquarium’s ocean education programs which educate and inspire our community and our kids about the ocean, the creatures living in it and the environment.
