Kids Run Clubs Through the Years
The program has been going strong since it began in 2015, and it’s still such an exciting moment anytime a new school joins in. Over 50 schools spanning 17 counties in West Virginia have had a Kids Run Club, and we hope to keep growing those numbers in the seasons to come.
