An annoucement this morning from the Board of Directors of the Amazing Charity Race
Dear Racers,
No one who achieves success does so without the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude.” – Alfred North Whitehead
A small group of us wanted to create a unique, family-fun event that challenged you physically and mentally. We weren’t certain we would run 2 Amazing Charity Races, let alone, make it to year 17!
After much consideration, The Board of The Amazing Charity Race has decided that this year’s race, to be held on Saturday June 18th, will be our final race.
We are proud of many things but most proud that we’ve been able to give back to so many deserving charitable groups that helped support the race over the years. Many volunteer’s time and talents made it possible for tens of thousands of race participants to experience a fun and unique day! We are grateful to all and want to acknowledge their tremendous work in making our adventure a reality.
We hope you can help us make this last race a memorable one! Please spread the word among friends and family to sign up for the race or to join a charitable group in volunteering. We will need each and every one of you to be successful one last time and give back to the community.
This year we are going back to our original roots, the race will be run in Loveland and Symmes Township!

Loveland, Ohio – It was a chance encounter meeting Dave McGaughy, Jessie, and Murphy at Kiwanis Park Friday morning as I was heading back to the office from the bank. Instead of turning left into the Farm, I thought, “Oh, I wonder if they are installing the fencing in the new dog park,” I thought if the fence installers were there working it would make for a follow-up to the story I wrote last week announcing the dog play area. (Loveland’s first dog park coming soon to the West Loveland Historic District) I turned right – into Kiwanis Park in the West Loveland Historic District.
The original story I wrote two weeks ago announcing that Loveland would soon open its first dog park was very popular with readers so I knew they were excited about the park and would be interested in reading about any progress about when it would open. Instead of installers, I encountered Dave, Jessie, and Murphy heading into the now completely fenced-in dog park.
Dave, it turns out is quite the expert on dog parks and told me all about the local ones, from Miami Township to Mason. He went into detail about what he thinks makes a good one and talked about some in Florida he visits.
Dave declared the Kiwanis Park dog park the best he’s ever taken “his boys” to and was interested to know how he could volunteer to help maintain it. He has experience volunteering at other dog parks.
Dave lives just outside of Loveland in Goshen Township and was very pleased that the “best” place to take his dogs was so close to home. Dave is a retired custodian at the Loveland Primary/Elementary Campus.
