Exciting News!

We are once again planning our Trax for Backpacks 5k and we have exciting news!  This year we will add a 10 race as well as the 5k ... and ... we are working with a school on the Pine Ridge Reservation to have one of the students design our logo!  

We can't wait to see the new logo and meet the student who will get to design it! 

For now, mark your calendar for Saturday, Oct. 29 to come out and walk or run the Trax for Backpacks  5k or 10k.  It will again be held at the Voice of America Park in West Chester, OH.

The Numbers are In and Its Good!

The number are in from the Trax for Backpacks 5k!! We cleared $ 1,872.00 !! Not bad for a first year event!!

Thanks to all who came out and ran or walked or just came out to cheer us on.

Thanks to our sponsors NAPA Auto Parts, The Body Shop Personal Training, Whole Foods and US Food Service.

And thanks to Rhonda Greely who had the vision and determination to make it all happen! It was a fun morning for all. We look forward to doing it all again next year!
