WHY WE DID THIS
Mental illness and suicide have unfortunately become more common in today’s world. in 2018, Seven students from three local high schools decided to help make a change. This year the 2019 race committee continues the tradition of putting the school rivalries aside and coming together not as three different schools, but as one big community. Our goal is to raise awareness of suicide and to raise money for great programs both locally and nationally.
You can register right now for the various runs as a participant, which range in prices. Or, you can sign up as a volunteer to help out. It’ll be held from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM over at the Red Bank Regional High School on 101 Ridge Road in Little Silver, NJ.
