Operation K.A.V.I.C. is a non-profit based in Defiance Ohio which assists veterans in crisis. Operation K.A.V.I.C. is there to fill the gaps in the veterans military benefits. In the past, we’ve been able to help with dental bills, car repairs, tools for work, therapy dogs, home repairs and much more! If you can think of it, we’ve probably helped with it.

  • Race Tee Shirt (Guaranteed if registered before March 15th)
  • Race Bib
  • Finisher Snacks
  • Professional Timing
  • Prizes to top Male and Female winners.
  • The wonderful feeling of supporting veterans in need.
