2019 Lilac Bloomsday Run

Posted by Aaron Jordan on

5 years ago Roast House began our relationship with the legendary Bloomsday Run – raising funds and serving coffee. We are thrilled to be a part of the 2019 Lilac Bloomsday Run weekend! Find us and the F1rst Avenue Coffee team at The Marmot March, The Corporate Tent and at the Tradeshow all weekend long. We'll be  serving up complimentary tasters of some damn good coffee and handing out coupons. 

"The Lilac Bloomsday Run was born during the running boom that swept the nation in the late 1970s. Local runner Don Kardong, who moved to Spokane in 1974, competed in several national class road races before and after his participation in the 1976 Olympic Marathon, and in the fall of 1976 he suggested to a local reporter that Spokane should have a downtown run of its own." 

Bloomsday celebrates the spirit of Spokane and we are happy to help support Bloomsday with their very own custom blend! $10 from every pound sold will go directly to the Lilac Bloomsday Association a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Out of town? Support the cause by picking up a bag of Bloomsday Blend here.

Go Bloomies Go!
