Join us 8:00 AM on Saturday, October 23 at Charm City Run Bel Air for a Fun Run that starts and ends at the store. This event will support BARCStoberfest.

BARCStoberfest is an annual, large scale, pet-friendly fundraiser that benefits the lifesaving programs and animal care at the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS). The 17th annual BARCStoberfest will consist of various virtual events and in-person fundraising events throughout the month of October, including Fun Runs at Charm City Run store locations. Fundraising leading up to BARCStoberfest raises critical funding for Maryland’s highest volume, open-admission shelter serving 10,000 animals per year. Our goal this year is $300,000, so while no one is required to sign up to fundraise in order to participate in the runs, any amount of money you raise will help us save animals in our shelter! Participants who meet a minimum fundraising goal of $50, will get the 17th annual T-shirt, dog bandana, and more goodies (to be picked up at a later date).
