Starfish 5K, Fun Run & Healthy Kids Day
2010 Lowe's YMCA Starfish 5K
Presented by Southern Community Bank & Trust
Saturday, April 17, 2010
9:00 AM
Online registration is now open at SPORToften!
The Lowe's YMCA Starfish 5K, held in conjunction with YMCA Healthy Kids Day, is a Mooresville tradition celebrating healthy competition while giving back to the community. Individuals from across the area run through the streets of Morrison Plantation.
The 5K & Fun Run are followed by a Vendor Business Fair and Healthy Kids Day activities designed to promote healthy kids and families in spirit, mind and body. YMCA Healthy Kids Day celebrates making fitness fun, and introduces kids to an array of YMCA programs and tools that teach healthy behaviors and healthy ways to play - an essential lesson in learning how to take care of themselves throughout their lifetimes.
Proceeds from this event and the Lowe's YMCA Annual Campaign help fund the YMCA Starfish Academy, a summer literacy program for rising 1st and 2nd graders who are reading below grade level. Provided at no cost to participants, Starfish serves children in Mooresville Graded Schools who are identified by their teachers as needing extra assistance during the summer.
