The Ricky Byrdsong Memorial Race Against Hate, now in its thirteenth year, was launched to honor Ricky's legacy and bring attention to the need to combat hatred in all its forms. Each year, it draws over 4,000 partipants, and whether you're a casual walker or a competitive runner, we have a place for you! The event features on-field refreshments and fun for the whole family. Add to that technical t-shirts, great give-away bags, awards, a fast, flat, and scenic race course along Lake Michigan and a great cause, and you have a positive community event you won't want to miss!

Our new Race website, at www.ywca.org/raceagainsthate, is the place to register, find a team, join a team, help raise money for the cause and get your questions about the Race, Packet Pick-up and Race Day answered.

Proceeds from the Race help support the YWCA Evanston/North Shore's racial justice and violence prevention programming.
