RACE
There's no better way to celebrate the season then to join us for the RDV Jingle Run 5K! Families and friends celebrate this annual tradition of giving in a fun fitness format. Dress for fun, or dress to run the tree-lined streets of Maitland. Since 1998 RDV Sportsplex has benefitted the Central Florida community and the Boys & Girls Clubs through its holiday run, raising more than $200,000 for the kids at the Joe R. Lee Branch in Eatonville. The 2019 race continues the tradition of giving to help inspire and enable all young people, especially those from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens. Join us!
