SBL Races for all Paces June 7
Fundraiser for SBL Dental Clinic
•April 23, 2025•
Spring is here, and that means it’s time to prepare for the Sarah Bush Lincoln Races for all Paces event, which is set for Saturday, June 7th, at Eastern Illinois University.
The multi-race event includes a 5K, 10K, one-mile run/walk, toddler trot, and diaper dash and raises funds for the SBL Dental Program. The program provides preventive and restorative care for children throughout the area. A dental team visits schools to provide preventive care while restorative care is provided in the dental clinic at 225 Richmond Avenue East, Suite B, in Mattoon. Volunteer dentists are key partners in the program, providing restorative care in their clinics for children who need additional or further extensive care.
“Races for all Paces is a great event for community members to have fun and exercise, and it garners a lot of support for the SBL Dental Program,” Tracy Haddock, SBL Healthy Communities director, said. “Many children in the community need quality dental care, and this annual event helps us continue to provide essential dental care.”
