Fourth annual AirPeyton Memorial Pediatric Cancer Awareness 5K Walk/Run
September 15 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
MONTPELIER, Vt. – The fourth annual AirPeyton Memorial Pediatric Cancer Awareness 5k Walk/Run will be held on Sunday, Sept. 15, from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m., at Montpelier High School, 5 High School Drive, Montpelier, Vt. All money raised will go to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, to support pediatric cancer research. You can participate in person or virtually. In addition to the race, we will have a spectacular raffle with amazing prizes, food, music, and of course lemonade.
This event’s namesake is a courageous and amazing young man named Peyton Smith, who bravely battled Ewing’s sarcoma for over two years before passing in 2020. Peyton graduated Montpelier High School in May of 2020, and aspired to be a famous designer making sneakers for professional athletes. He was truly an inspiration to everyone who met him.
This in-person and virtual walk/run, honoring Peyton, has inspired the local community along with friends and family to contribute in numerous ways. When the third annual event concluded, over $20,000 had been raised for Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. This event is being held both in person and virtually wherever you may be in the world.
