Join us for the 3rd Annual Pilar McLemore Butterfly Run on Saturday, November 1, 2025 at the Longview Arboretum & Nature Center! 🦋
This special 5K run/walk benefits the Texas Oncology Foundation, with proceeds staying right here in East Texas to support families facing cancer. After the race, kids 12 and under can take part in the free Little Bug Run through the Arboretum gardens. While not mandatory, butterfly wings are always encouraged!
Run, walk, or flutter along with us—every step makes a difference!
Event Details: The starting point is at the West Gate of the Arboretum, facing Maude Cobb. Register by October 10th to guarantee your t-shirt. All participants will receive Chick-Fil-A breakfast after the race, a Swag Bag, and Race Bib. Your event registration includes admission to the Arboretum!
