Hogwarts Running Club Event 3!

Home > Deals > Hogwarts Running Club Event 3!

April 8, 2018 by Heather Butler

EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT! As some of you know  I am a HUGE supporter of Hogwarts Running Club. I have been participating on their virtual races and challenges since their first year. As a Slytherin, this charity excited me. *Lin-Manuel Miranda is a proud Slytherin.

Hogwarts Running Club is pleased to present our third event of 2018:

The Forgotten 5k!

Neville Longbottom. The first time we heard that name, we had no idea how important that character would be. In fact, most doubted this character would ever amount to much in the wizarding world. Brave and true, Neville proved to be a true Lion and played a critical role in taking down the Dark Lord once and for all. But one of the first times we see the young and awkward 11-year-old Neville, he receives a remembrall from his grandmother but can’t remember what he’s forgotten! Hence, we are celebrating all things Neville with an AMAZING 3″ remembrall-inspired medal with a 3-D dome and magical moving “smoke” (glitter-filled red fluid), a beautiful sublimated ribbon featuring a certain awesome sword, and a Trevor-the-toad-themed digital bib!

Despite the losses he suffered, Neville never forgot about the power of family. As we announced last night, we are pleased to announce our charity partner for this event is the Hispanic Federation and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Immigrants: We Get the Job Done Coalition!

Specifically, we’re going to be supporting the Coalition’s Keeping Families Together Initiative! All Coalition members work to keep immigrant children and families safe and together. This is a huge undertaking, since most anti-immigrant actions affect not just individuals but also their family members. Through the Coalition’s Keeping Families Together initiative, Coalition members conduct immigration-related services such as legal services and social services to immigrants and their families. Visit  http://hispanicfederation.org/getthejobdone/  to learn more!

And don’t forget your event shirt! Visiting his parents at St. Mungo’s, Neville’s mother handed him an empty Droobles Blowing Gum wrapper. While his grandmother wanted him to throw it away, Neville instead pocketed it…simply because it came from his mother. Honoring that heart-breaking moment and showing our support for the Keeping Families Together Initiative, we are thrilled to present these amazing Drooble shirts! All proceeds will go to support the Coalition! You can get your shirt at: https://www.customink.com/fundraising/forgotten-5k

The suggested run date for the Forgotten 5k is Wednesday, May 2nd…the 20th anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts and Neville’s bravest moments (i.e. blowing up the bridge, being set on fire, pulling the sword out of the hat…yeah, it was a busy day!) Remember, this is only a fun suggestion. You are welcome to complete your 5k whenever you want!

Registration closes at midnight on May 6th (or early morning on the 7th depending on your Time Zone). All medals will be mailed on May 14th.

Finally, if you are PRE-REGISTERED we’ve created a “Luna’s Fund Donation Only” registration category so you can donate to Luna’s Fund without “registering” for the medal again! If you want to APPLY for a Luna’s Fund sponsorship, please see the details in the HRC Great Hall.
