Fox Trot 5K/10K Run/Walk
We would also like to thank Fox River Trail Runners for including us on their 2018 Race Circuit!
The 17th Annual Fox Trot 5K/10K race held on Saturday, April 29, 2017, was a smashing success and we want to thank all of our wonderful participants who help us to make this event the “friendliest race on the Fox River!”
It took place at the Batavia Riverwalk (Island Avenue & Houston Street in downtown Batavia). Both the 5K and 10K featured courses along the beautiful Fox River. Kids also joined in on the fun, too! The Fox Trot featured two non-competitive races designed especially for children. The Junior Jog, for children in preschool, kindergarten, or first grade is approximately ¼ mile long. Second through fifth graders were encouraged to try the Youth Run (1 mile).

The 16th Annual Fox Trot 5K and 10K Race took place on Saturday, April 30, 2016 at 8:00 a.m. at the Batavia Riverwalk (Island Avenue & Houston Street in downtown Batavia). The day’s events featured a 5K and a 10K race as well as the Kids’ Fun Runs. Over 300 runners came out to support our mission. The H.C. Storm Chorus started the race off with the singing of the national anthem and Batavia Academy of Dance provided a performance while runners awaited the results of the race.
This race could never have happened without the fantastic support of our sponsors, BMCF volunteers, and the dedicated runners, many of whom return year after year. Thank you to all who participated, volunteered, or supported this race!

We had such a blast with I Love the 80’s, Totally Rad Bunco that we did it AGAIN!!Totally Rad Bunco was held February 3, 2018 at the Batavia Moose Lodge. This event was again at capacity, filling in only 2 weeks of the registration being available!
In addition to Bunco, there was a raffle, silent auction, heads or tails game, wine pull, free snacks including some 80’s themed candy, and a cash bar. All money raised through the Batavia Mothers’ Club Foundation goes directly back to the community through the schools or local organizations that focus on helping children.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions about this event at 630-282-3153 or email us at bunco@bataviamothersclub.org
This year’s event was almost at max capacity. Attendees enjoyed traveling back to the 80s listening to tunes from Bon Jovi and Cyndi Lauper to El Debarge and Stevie Wonder as well as noshing on refreshments from Enticing Cuisine or snacks like candy cigarettes. Raffles and mini games accompanied the main event, Bunco, as well. Both volunteers and attendees alike donned neon, leg warmers, acid-washed jeans or Flashdance-inspired gear and were met with many laughs. We had a wonderful time this year and we hope that all of our participants did as well!
