What makes this event different from last year?
Breakfast  will be given after the race. There will be fun pit stops during the race and celebrities will join too. What’s great about this event is that you can run with your desired costumes or headdress for the costume  and headdress contest. Costumes must be related to each other (e.g. Goldilocks and 3 bears) while for 3k and 5k is the headdress parade. There will be prizes for those who’ll grab Best in Costumes and Best in Headdress. Ronald  Mcdonald will join the kids as they run. And lastly, there will be Mcmoneys which will be used as your ticket for all the games, activities and photobooth available at the Piazza.

There will be free breakfast and a lot more.

Do senior citizens get a discount?
No, the McHappy day is a fund raising activity for its flagship program Bright Mind Reads. It is not covered by the goods against which a Senior Citizen may apply the 20% discount.
