Benefitting
Our race will raise funds for our third annual Running Ranger program, a four-week Summer camp that will teach children in our community the virtues of running, including: goal-setting, teamwork, leadership, persistence, and dedication. Additional financial support will be used to cover the cost of entry of our athletes to clinics, local races, and necessary team gear. Thank you in advance for your support of the Northwest Area Cross Country runners.
Description
