Latham Centers’ Donkey Dash 5K Road Race

 

An Annual Community Tradition  - Hog Island Brewery, Orleans, MA

Dear Donkey Dashers,

What an incredible day! Thank you for joining us at Latham Centers’ Third Annual Donkey Dash 5K. The love, enthusiasm, determination, and camaraderie felt throughout the event were truly inspiring — a powerful reflection of the spirit that drives our Latham community.

We were thrilled to see many new faces and welcome back some familiar ones! Whether it was your first Dash or your third time claiming a coveted bobble-butt trophy, you helped make the day special. Every step taken and every smile shared helped raise vital funds to support the extraordinary individuals with complex disabilities here at Latham Centers.
