News from Animal Samaritans: Calling All Superheroes. Animal Samaritans Superheroes 5K Run / Walk for the Animals is Saturday, March 4, 2017 beginning at 8am. The run / walk starts and ends at Rancho Mirage Community Park on Whitewater Place.
Participants receive a cape, t-shirt, medal, trophy for age groups, a swag bag with goodies from our sponsors and the opportunity to win one of 3 door prizes, each valued at $200.00 or more.
