Charities
Our goal every year remains the same: To promote fitness, family fun and a sense of community. Last year, we continued our patriotic tradition which we started in 2001, paying tribute to our beloved country and community. Our event overflowed with a sense of people uniting in a patriotic and caring way. With the funds raised last year, we were able to provide much needed support to the following local organizations that serve our community in many vital areas, and one local family in need.
