Consider a scavenger hunt of Max's favorite things such as the moon, the color orange, or MSU's mascot Sparty to honor the legacy of Max who passed away at the age of 6 due to complications from meningitis.

Proceeds from the event will support free round-trip rides to medical appointments for children facing serious health challenges.

All participants receive a short sleeve t-shirt and finisher's medal.
